Issues: Whether disallowance under section 14A read with Rule 8D could be sustained when no exempt income was earned during the year, and whether the Explanation to section 14A could be applied retrospectively.
Analysis: The assessee had not earned any exempt income in the relevant assessment year. On those facts, disallowance under section 14A read with Rule 8D was held to be impermissible. The Explanation to section 14A was also treated as prospective in operation and not retrospective, so it could not enlarge the disallowance for the year under consideration. The Revenue's reliance on cited authorities was found distinguishable on facts, and the view already taken in identical matters was followed for consistency.
Conclusion: The disallowance under section 14A read with Rule 8D was not justified, and the deletion made by the appellate authority was upheld.
