ITAT allowed the taxpayer's appeal, reversing the disallowance of expenses under Section 37(1). Despite vendors not being GST-registered, the tribunal found the expenses genuine, as payments were made through banking channels with TDS deducted. The Assessing Officer's rationale of disallowing expenses solely on GST registration status was deemed incorrect.
