Judgment :- R. JAYASIMHA BABU, J. The question referred to us at the instance of the Revenue is as to, "whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was justified in law in holding that the reimbursement of daily expenses and out of pocket expenses incurred by the foreign technician in India towards his stay in India is exempt under s. 10(14) of the IT Act, 1961 ?" The year of assessment is 1981-82, The assessee is citizen of Japan who had stayed in India in connection with the supply of capital goods and erection of machinery for an Indian company, Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals and Fertilisers Ltd., Madras. He received from the Indian company during his stay in India reimbursement of the lodging, boarding and entertainment expenses. The ITO has treated the amount of Rs. 71, 811 as income from other sources and levied tax thereon. The CIT(A) as also the Tribunal held that the amounts reimbursed related to expenses which were wholly, necessarily and exclusively incurred for purpose of duties which the assessee was required to perform in India and, therefore, would be exempt from tax under s. 10(14) of the Act. The finding recorded by the Tribunal is a finding of fact. We have not shown any other material on record which would be supporting the submission that the finding of the Tribunal is not based on any material. We, answer the question referred to us in favour of the assessee and against the Revenue.
