The assessees case is that prohibition contained in s. 40A(7) must be confined to a case where the assessee has actually set apart a sum by way of provision for the purpose of payment of gratuity. Where no provision was made for payment of gratuity, the bar contained in s. 40A (7) (a) will not apply and there is no legal impediment in allowing the claim of the assessee. This contention was rejected by this Court in the case of the CIT v. New Swadeshi Mills of Ahmedabad Ltd. reported in (1984) 147 ITR 163 (Cal). It appears to us that the question in this reference is concluded by the aforesaid decision. Following, the said decision we answer this question in this reference in the negative and in favour of the revenue.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.
