The Supreme Court addressed the applicability of Section 80HHC of the Income Tax Act, 1961, concerning the deduction for profits derived from the export of trading goods. The Court held that the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal was justified in allowing the deduction despite the assessee's declaration of negative profits, emphasizing that the pre-condition for such deductions must be fulfilled. The appeal by the revenue was dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's decision and the High Court's dismissal of the appeal under Section 260A.
