Held that at the time of making the donation to the school, the latter had valid approval granted by the Central Board of Direct Taxes. According to the Explanation to section 35(1)(ii), the subsequent withdrawal of such approval could not form a reason to deny deduction claimed by the donor. Therefore, if the assessee, acting upon a valid registration or approval granted to an institution, had made a donation of which he claimed deduction, such deduction could not be disallowed if, at a later point of time, the approval was cancelled with retrospective affect. As a result, the order of the Commissioner (Appeals) was set aside and the disallowance of the assessee’s claim of deduction under section 35(1)(ii) was vacated. Relied on CIT v.
