If there is no tax-free income, then no section 14A disallowance is to be made based on assumption that in future, some tax-free income will result to assessee on investment.
Calcutta High Court held that invocation of provisions of rule 8D(2)(ii) of the Income Tax Rules by AO without examining the accounts of the assessee and without examining the claim made by the assessee is unjustified.
n this case addition was made u/s.14A r.w. Rule 8D by AO and confirmed by CIT (A) holding that Amendment in Finance Act, 2022 in relation to disallowance u/s.14A r.w. Rule 8D is applicable retrospectively even if no exempted income was earned by assessee.
It is to be presumed that the assessee made investments from its own funds but not from borrowed funds. If that is the case the disallowance under interest is not warranted. Therefore, disallowance under Rule 8D(ii) to an extent of Rs. 1,78,490/- is not maintainable.
HC held that amendment of Section 14A, which is for removal of doubts cannot be presumed to be retrospective even where such language is used, if it alters or changes the law as it earlier stood.
