Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
Section 43B(e) was held inapplicable to interest payable by a co-operative society on deposits from its own members, because the clause covers only interest on loans or advances from the specified institutions. The liability had accrued during the year and was recorded under the governing co-operative law, so the expenditure was allowable on accrual basis under section 37(1). The Tribunal also noted that the assessee's entitlement to deduction under section 80P(2)(a)(i) had already been affirmed, and any enhanced business profits arising from the disallowance would also qualify for deduction under section 80P. The addition was deleted.
