For the A.Y. 2014–15, the Assessing Officer passed an order u/s 143(3) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. Thereafter, the assessee filed an application before the Principal Commissioner u/s 264 in which it submitted that it had commenced its business operations during the previous year 2013–14, and accordingly, the A.Y. 2014–15 was the first year under assessment and that though it was entitled to claim deduction u/s 80-IA because of a bona fide error, it did not claim it either at the time of filing the return of income or during the assessment proceeding. The assessee also sought condonation of delay of 52 days. The Principal Commissioner condoned the delay and observed that the assessee did not opt to make the claim to deduction
