In this further appeal under section 136 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1979 (since amended) following questions of law are stated to have arisen out of the order of the Tribunal dated 27-3-2000:

(iii) Whether the facts that the assessee had applied before the Corporate Law Authority for allotment of shares after the Assessing Officer had confronted the assessee on this account '-- materially change the nature of the amount deposited for deposit (sic) for share with the company?
