ITAT held that the payments in question do not constitute deemed dividend under section 2(22)(e) because the recipient was not a registered shareholder of the assessee-company; consequently, tax deduction at source under section 194 could not be fastened, and consequential liability under sections 201(1) and 201(1A) does not arise.
