Compensation paid under cancellation arrangements for share-sale agreements was treated as deductible expenditure in computing long-term capital gains because the transaction was found genuine and not a colourable device. The payment had a direct nexus with the eventual transfer of shares at a higher price and was accepted as expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively in connection with the transfer.
