DCIT Vs Bank of America NT & SA (ITAT Mumbai)- Tribunal held that interest received on income tax refund can be set-off against the interest paid on delayed payment of income tax and only net amount is to be taxed.
The issue before the tribunal was that Whether interest income received by the taxpayer on income tax refund can be set-off against delayed payment on income tax? Whether the taxpayer can offer the net interest received as income?

in case interest on delay in payment of tax is excess than interest earn in refund then, can we claim loss under “income from other sources”
