The ITAT held that deduction of interest u/s 57 against interest income must be substantiated by the assessee. Interest expenditure must be incurred for earning interest income. In this case, interest on delayed sale payment is not connected to interest expenditure on loans for business purchases.

The CIT(A)'s decision was upheld, dismissing all grounds raised by the assessee.
