The ITAT held that the assessee's transactions did not fall within the provisions of speculative transactions u/s 43(5) as the ultimate settlement was through actual delivery to the buyer. Disallowance of interest u/s 36(1)(iii) was rejected as the advance to parties was for business purposes, not necessarily bearing interest, and supported by audited balance sheet reflecting availability of interest-free funds.
