Bad Debts - Loans advanced to the Group Company utilized for purchase of properties and shares - The High court holds that it's not necessary for the assessee to establish that the debt went bad during the relevant previous year. If the assessee can demonstrate a bona fide belief that the debt had become bad and is written off accordingly, the claim should be allowed. - The High court concurs with the ITAT's finding that the nature and quality of the transaction, not just how it's recorded in the books, are crucial in determining its character.
