Political contribution deductions require assessee-specific proof before cash-back allegations can justify disallowance or unexplained-money additions...
The NCLAT upheld the rejection of the appellant's claim to be recognized as a financial creditor, affirming that the appellant's payments were either brokerage fees or adjustments against flat bookings rather than disbursements constituting financial debt. The appellant had only deposited Rs. 2,00,000 towards a flat booking which was later cancelled, and no actual payment was made for the flats allotted under the Builder Buyer Agreement. The appellant's prior status as an operational creditor remained unchanged throughout the CIRP. The tribunal found no error in the IRP's or Adjudicating Authority's decision, as the appellant failed to demonstrate any financial debt or lending arrangement. Consequently, both appeals were dismissed, confirming that the appellant cannot be treated as a financial creditor under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code.
