Deduction of rent expenditure was denied because the assessee failed to prove that the new premises were used for business during the relevant AY. Although a rent agreement and an application to shift the excise licence were produced, business use was legally contingent on excise permission and issuance of a new licence, which were granted only in the subsequent AY; without such permission, the assessee could not have shifted operations, and the premises could not be treated as used for business in the year under consideration.
