Issues: Whether the disallowance made under section 40(a)(ia) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 for non-deduction of tax at source under section 195 was sustainable where the impugned payment to the overseas associate enterprise was recorded only by journal entry.
Analysis: The assessee's books reflected the relevant income and expenditure for the intervening period through journal entries pursuant to the scheme of arrangement. On the facts found, the impugned amount credited to the overseas entity was held to be merely an accounting entry and not an actual payment attracting deduction of tax at source under section 195. Since the foundation for invoking section 40(a)(ia) was absent, the disallowance could not be sustained.
Conclusion: The disallowance under section 40(a)(ia) was deleted and the issue was decided in favour of the assessee.
