ITAT held that actual contractual rent under registered leave-and-license arrangements, together with separately agreed commercial amenity charges, could not be replaced by an enhanced annual letting value absent cogent material of suppressed rent, sham transactions, or unaccounted consideration; the addition under section 23(1)(a) was deleted. It also held that interest on borrowed capital used to acquire let-out commercial property was deductible under section 24(b) because the borrowings had a direct nexus with acquisition and the Revenue could not deny relief while taxing the property under the head income from house property; the disallowance was deleted. In the absence of exempt income, section 14A and Rule 8D could not be invoked, and the Finance Act 2022 Explanation was treated as prospective.
