Therefore, the court answered question No. 1 in favor of the assessee and against the Revenue.Question No. 2: The assessee-company diverted part of the bank overdraft to directors and firms in which the directors had substantial interest, without charging interest. The assessing authority disallowed the interest paid by the company to the bank for non-business purposes. A similar case was decided against the assessee in a previous assessment year. Following that decision, the court answered question No. 2 in favor of the Revenue and against the assessee.Question No. 3: Since question No. 3 is interconnected with question No. 2, which was decided in favor of the Revenue, no separate answer was provided for question No. 3.The reference was answered accordingly with no order as to costs.
