Merchant banker regulation consolidates registration, governance, capital, reporting, outsourcing and investor-protection requirements under an update...
Authentication of paper assessment orders upheld, while qualifying repairs, consumables and vendor advance write-offs remain deductible business claim...
Commodity-trading receivables written off as bad debts qualify for deduction where they were previously included in income and written off in the books; a possible future recovery does not justify disallowance. Characterising the transactions as speculative or the amount as capital investment does not displace fulfilment of those conditions. The bad-debt disallowance was deleted, subject to taxation of any later recovery in the year received. For windmill-profit deductions, head-office expenses and depreciation on common assets require factual examination of their components, use and allocation to eligible operations. That computation was remanded for fresh adjudication.
