Rule 8D disallowance requires the Assessing Officer to record specific dissatisfaction, after examining the taxpayer's working, before indirect expenditure relating to exempt income can be disallowed; general observations on investments are insufficient.

Corporate advertising, lease equalisation charges and employee stock-option costs may qualify as revenue expenditure. Subsidies linked to technology-upgradation investment are capital receipts, while scheme-based incentives require factual examination.
