    Case Summary: ITA/72/2018 The High Court at Calcutta allowed Graphite India Limited's appeal, deciding two key tax issues in the assessee's favor. First, following the Supreme Court's Shital Fibers judgment, the court held that Section 80IA deductions need not be reduced when computing profits eligible for Section 80HHC deduction. Second, the court determined that sales-tax remission received under the West Bengal Incentive Scheme, 1993 constitutes a capital receipt (not revenue), as it was directly linked to capital investment for industrial expansion in backward areas, applying the established "purpose test."
