Interest income earned from fixed deposits created as margin for availing business loans was rightly treated as business income and netted off against interest expenditure capitalized in work-in-progress (WIP). CIT(A) and coordinate bench for earlier year upheld this treatment based on nexus between interest earned and assessee's business. Decisions relied upon held such interest to be business income, not income from other sources. Assessing Officer failed to establish that fixed deposits were from surplus funds rather than borrowed advances/overdraft facility for business purposes.
