Act on the hire charges and finance charges received is covered in

favour of the Revenue vide decision of this court in COMMISSIONER

allow the appeal by reversing the order of the Tribunal and that of the

first appellate authority and remand the matter to the Assessing Officer

abovereferred, after issuing notice to the assessee and after serving a
