<h1>Tribunal Rules in Favor of Appellant in Disallowance Case under Income-tax Act</h1> <h3>M/s. Firepro Wireless & Technologies Private Limited Versus ACIT, Central Circle 11, New Delhi</h3> M/s. Firepro Wireless & Technologies Private Limited Versus ACIT, Central Circle 11, New Delhi - TMI Issues:- Disallowance under section 14A of the Income-tax Act for assessment years 2009-10 & 2010-11.- Disallowance of expenses without dividend income earned by the assessee.Analysis:1. The appellant, M/s. Firepro Wireless & Technologies Pvt. Ltd., challenged the orders passed by the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) for the assessment years 2009-10 & 2010-11. The appellant raised various grounds, including the reduction of added amounts, disallowance under section 14A, and not following High Court orders.2. During the proceedings, it was noted that the appellant had significant sales but no income before tax from trading activities. The appellant had also made substantial investments in Tulip group companies, leading to a 0.5% disallowance under section 14A for both assessment years.3. The appellant contended that since no dividend was earned, no disallowance should be made. The Revenue relied on the CIT (A)'s order. The Tribunal observed that in the absence of dividend income, disallowance under section 14A was impermissible, citing a relevant High Court judgment.4. Consequently, the Tribunal ruled in favor of the assessee, ordering the deletion of the disallowance of Rs. 1 lakh each for the assessment years 2009-10 & 2010-11. The appeals filed by the assessee were allowed, and the orders were pronounced on November 29, 2019.
