Disallowance of interest difference between the rate paid on borrowed capital and the rate advanced to a wholly owned subsidiary is not warranted. The Supreme Court in S.A. Builders held that advancing funds by a holding company to its subsidiary for commercial expediency does not warrant disallowance of interest, even if not charged. The Delhi Tribunal in Moonrock Hospitality ruled that where funds were advanced to a wholly owned subsidiary for business purposes, no interest paid on borrowed funds could be disallowed u/s 36(1)(iii) of the Income Tax Act.
