On appeal allowing the appeal of the assessee the Tribunal held that the \u00a0main object of the assessee is to promote and protect the trade, commerce and manufacturers of India and in particular the trade, commerce and manufacturers of the Bombay Presidency. \u00a0The Tribunal also held that\u00a0 the amounts received \u00a0from the members are not in nature of trade (since there is no exchange of goods either for goods in return or money) or commerce . Therefore the activities carried out by the assessee Chamber continue to be charitable in nature even under the amended definition under S. \u00a02(15) of the Act and assessee is entitled for exemption under S. \u00a011 of the Act.
