Approval u/s. 80G once granted shall continue to be valid in perpetuity unless and until a show-cause notice is issued by the concerned CIT showing his intention to withdraw already granted such approval.
In order to claim deduction the assessee has to prove by adducing cogent evidence that it was incurred on account of business activities of the company. It appears as rightly pointed out by the respondent that despite opportunity being given, it could not produce any materials that such foreign tour was undertaken in relation to the business of the company. Mere furnishing information and making of statement are not good enough to establish the case of foreign travel.
Yoga guru Baba Ramdev’s trusts have been told they owe the government Rs. 58 crore in taxes against their income, largely from the sale of ayurvedic medicines. The Income Tax Department has calculated the taxes against an income of Rs. 120 crore from commercial activities.
Disallowance under section 14A has to be made in accordance with the principle laid down by the Hon’ble Bombay High Court in the case of Godrej & Boyce Mfg.Co.Ltd. Mumbai. Vs. Dy. Commissioner of Income . Rule 8D should not be applied and the AO has to adopt a reasonable basis or method consistent with all relevant facts and circumstances and after affording reasonable opportunity to the assessee to place all germane material on the record.
The law stands very well settled by the Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of CIT vs. Reliance Petroproducts (P.) Ltd., (supra) that merely disallowing a claim of deduction raised by the assessee is not a ground to proceed u/s 271(1)(c). For penalty, it has to be either a case of furnishing of inaccurate particulars, concealment of income or at least the claim should have been proved to be a mala-fide one. In our considered opinion, the said eventualities do not exist in instant case. Therefore, the penalty in question does not hold ground.
Bhole Bhandari Charitable Trust v. CIT From the proviso attached to the section 293C of the Act, it is crystal clear that even if any Income-tax Authority wants to withdraw approval, he shall issue a show-cause notice against the proposed withdrawal to the assessee concerned and after giving a reasonable opportunity of being heard shall withdraw approval after recording reasons for doing so.

As far as difference in foreign exchange is concerned, it is to be computed based on straight formula. Similarly, depreciation could also be verified from details available on the record. Considering all these aspects, we set aside this issue to the file of the Assessing Officer for readjudication.
Sec. 24 has been amended w.e.f. 01-04-2002. Before the amendment, various categories of expenditure like collection charges, insurance premium, ground rent, land revenue, etc., were allowable, but after the amendment, only two types of deductions are possible, namely, 30% of the total annual value and amount of interest paid for acquisition of property. No other deduction is possible and accordingly we hold that the amount of expenditure incurred on account of brokerage, professional consultancy, maintenance, etc., relating to the property is not allowable under the head ‘income from house property’.
The Commissioner (Appeals), without application under rule 46A and without recording any reason for admitting the documents and explanation filed before him and without affording reasonable opportunity to examine such evidence or documents filed before him by the Assessing Officer had decided the issue in favour of the assessee, which is clear violation of principle of natural justice.
