The ITAT dismissed the Revenue's appeals challenging the assessee bank's treatment of amortization of premium on HTM securities, holding it appropriate to amortize over the holding period in line with RBI guidelines. Disallowances relating to depreciation on investments, venture capital fund investments, and MTM derivatives were rejected, reaffirming prior Tribunal and Supreme Court precedents that found no escapement of income.
