It is clearly observed in both high and low inclination systems that the lag increases when QPO frequency goes down, i.e., when the size of the Comptonizing region goes up. In fact, exactly opposite result is found also in the declining phase. We find that (Dutta & Chakrabarti, 2016) the time lag is not only a function of the average energy of the emitted photons, it is also a function of the inclination angle of the binary system. We explain the hard and soft lags are due to the effects of (i) repeated Compton scattering which accounts higher lags (hard) for higher-energy photons and for Compton clouds of larger size before they escape, (ii) reflection, and (iii) focusing due to gravitational bending. Specifically, we showed that if we add up the qualitative variations of the lag components, then the high inclination objects could have negative time lags, i.e., soft photons appearing after hard photons due to reflection and focusing effects. We explain lag-behaviour within the framework of a single two component advective flow model. Reference; 1.Dutta, Broja. G., Chakrabarti, S.
