The mechanical disallowance u/s 14A r.w. Rule 8D is also being added to the book profit by the AO irrespective of the fact whether assessee has actually debited any such expenditure in its P&L Account which is against the pronouncements given by various Judicial authorities in the recent past.
Kolkata bench of Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) recently quashed the order passed by the lower authorities disallowing the claim of the assessee towards leave encashment for the reason that the order of the High Court invalidating Section 43(f) of the Income tax Act 1961 was not stayed by the Supreme Court.
Undisputedly the assessee has not earned any exempted income. Now it is settled position of law that whenever assessee did not earn any exempt income, no dis allowance could be made u/s. 14A of the Act.
No disallowance U/s 14A of Act need to be made by invoking the provisions of Rule 8D (2) (ii) of Rules as investments admittedly are business expediency investments and strategic investments.
This appeal as well as Cross Objection (CO) by the Revenue and assessee is directed against the order of Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-9, Kolkata dated 01.12.2015. Assessment was framed by DCIT, Circle-11, Kolkata u/s 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961

Thus, the view and opinion formed by the AO, while passing the original assessment orders is doubted as erroneous. This is obviously a case of change of opinion.

Rule 8D without appreciating the fact that for invoking disallowance u/s 14A, it is not material that the assessee should have earned such exempt income during the financial year under consideration as per CBDT circular No.5/2014 dated 11.02.2014
