Disallowance of mark to market loss - Pertinently, when the AO is accepting the gain offered as income by the assessee following similar accounting method, there is no justifiable reason to disallow the loss. It is also relevant to observe, the contention of the assessee that the loss determined on restatement of forward contract as on 31.03.2016 was reversed on 01.04.2016 i.e. on the first day of the succeeding assessment year, wherein, the forward contracts matured has not been controverted. Thus, any disallowance in the impugned assessment year would be prejudicial to the assessee, as, it would amount to double disallowance of the same amount. - AT
