. CIT Vs. Bharti Overseas Pvt. Ltd. (Delhi High Court) As far as Rule 8D (2) (i) is concerned, the AO has necessarily to record that he is not satisfied with the correctness of the claim of the expenditure made by the Assessee in relation to the income which does not form part of the total income.
ITAT Mumbai held In the case of DCIT vs. Viraj Profiles Ltd. that section 14A provides that it mandates disallowance of expenditure ‘in relation’ to the income which does not form part of the total income while clause (f) in explanation1 to Section 115JB (2) mandates disallowance of expenditure ‘relatable’
ITAT Delhi held In the case of M/s. Mohair Investment and Trading Company (P) Ltd. vs. DCIT that it is clear that the present issue, related to application of section 14A, especially in relation to shares held as trading assets
DCM Ltd vs. DCIT (ITAT Delhi) AO has neither recorded his satisfaction nor given reasons as to how the claim of expenditure in relation to tax free income has not been correctly made by the assessee as envisaged under section 14A(2).
ITAT Kolkata held In the case of ITO vs. M/s LGW Ltd that share application money is only in the nature of an offer to buy shares made by the assessee. It is only after the offer is accepted by the company; the Assessee becomes the shareholder in a company.
The Brief facts of the case are that assessee company is engaged in the business of manufacturing and dealing in flexible packaging material. During the assessment proceedings u/s 143(3) read with section 143(2) of the Income Tax Act,1961
The Assessing Officer made disallowance by invoking the provisions of Section 14A r.w. Rule 8D of the Income Tax Rules. As per assessee, the AO has not established any nexus between the expenditure disallowed and investment made from which the income denied is exempt from tax.
MVL Industries Ltd. vs. D.C.I.T. (ITAT Delhi)- Provisions of section 14A are to prevent claims of deduction of expenditure in relation to income which does not form part of the total income of the assessee; that these provisions are enacted to ensure that only expenses incurred
Since the Rule-8D of I.T.Rules, 1962 is not applicable, therefore in our considered view the AO was not justified in applying the Rule 8D for making disallowance. The ld.CIT(A) has given a finding that the assessee was having substantial funds and lesser borrowed funds.
ITAT Kolkata held In the case of DCIT vs. M/s G.K.K. Capital Markets (P) Limited that in case AO has not recorded satisfaction about the correctness of the claim of the assessee and straight away calculated the disallowance u/s 14A read with rule 8D, this disallowance is not maintainable.
