Expenditure incurred by a society on garba and advertisement was treated as connected with its cultural, social and educational objects, and the mere fact that payments were made to group concerns or that the activity resulted in a loss did not justify disallowance. The Tribunal found no material showing sham, bogus or object-unrelated expenditure, and noted that the authorities had not rejected the books of account under section 145(3) or identified any express defect in the tax audit report.
