Disallowance of expenses u/s 37(1) - Pharmaceutical Companies - proportionate expenditure incurred on medical practitioners - It has been held therein that while beneficial circulars have to be applied retrospectively, oppressive circulars would have prospective application. In view of this it is clear that C.B.D.T. Circular No.5 of 2012 imposes a new kind of imparity and thus the view taken in the aforesaid decisions by the Tribunal is in consonance with the law laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. It is thus clear that the said Circular could not have been applied retrospectively and especially to Assessment Year 2010-11 in the present case. - HC
