Exemption u/s 11 - rejection of assessee’s application for registration u/s 12A - The Appellate Tribunal found that the rejection of the application was unjustified as it was based on suspicion without credible material. It emphasized that at the registration stage, the focus should be on determining whether the objectives of the institution are charitable, rather than questioning the expenditure incurred. It was observed that while the Commissioner did not doubt the charitable nature of the institution's objectives, the rejection was primarily based on concerns about promoting pharmaceutical businesses. However, the Tribunal asserted that educating and raising awareness about diseases like endocrine disorders is inherently charitable.
