ITAT ruled against disallowance of transportation expenses, finding the Assessing Officer failed to establish statutory grounds u/s 37 for rejection. The tribunal emphasized that disallowance requires proving either bogus claims, capital/personal expenditure nature, or illegality of expense. Evidence showed consistent business pattern with progressive GP/NP rates compared to previous years where similar deductions were allowed. AO's summary disallowance without substantiating any Section 37 violations was deemed unjustified. The tribunal vacated CIT(A)'s order sustaining the disallowance, ruling in assessee's favor by accepting the claimed transportation expenses as legitimate business deductions.
