Limitation on carry forward of capital losses was applied: the Tribunal found the assessee did not rebut the revenue's contention or show entitlement to set off a carry forward capital loss beyond the eight succeeding assessment years in which the loss was first computed, and upheld the disallowance of that setoff.
