Deductibility allowed for Central Excise PLA pre-year end; MODVAT unutilized and Section 43B sales tax disallowed; software expensed
HC allowed the claim that amounts deposited into the Central Excise Personal Ledger Account before year-end were deductible, ruling for the assessee. The court rejected the assessee's claim on unutilized MODVAT credit at year-end, ruling for the Revenue. The claim for deduction of a Sales Tax Recoverable account under Section 43B was disallowed, favoring the Revenue. The court treated software expenditure as allowable revenue expenditure, ruling in favor of the assessee.

Whether the ITAT erred in law in confirming the disallowance of the amount of Rs.2,93,59,644/- deposited by the Appellant in its Central Excise Personal Ledger Account (PLA) before 31.3.2000 i.e. the end of the relevant accounting year even though the assessee has already incurred liability of excise duty of a much higher value? ii. Whether the ITAT had committed an error of law in upholding the disallowance of the amount of Rs.65,43,26,890/- which represented MODVAT credit of excise duty that remained unutilized by 31.3.2000 i.e. the end of the relevant accounting year? iii. Whether the ITAT has committed an error of law in upholding the disallowance of Rs.3,57,51,194/- in respect of Sales Tax Recoverable account, under Section 43B of the Income Tax Act? iv. Has not the ITAT erred in law in failing to allow the software expenditure of Rs.1,82,71,588/- incurred by the Appellant as revenue expenditure?"
