MAT book-profit computation under section 115JB does not permit adding back expenditure disallowed under section 14A merely because it relates to exempt income. The Special Bench ruling in Vireet Investment establishes that section 14A disallowance is not an adjustment to book profit. Explanation 1 to section 115JB(2) exhaustively specifies permissible additions and does not include demerger expenditure disallowed under section 35DD in the regular tax computation. Consequently, neither the section 14A disallowance nor the section 35DD disallowance is added back while computing MAT book profit.
