Treaty benefit, goodwill depreciation and hedging costs: export commission disallowed, while key business deductions and depreciation claims succeeded...
Undisclosed foreign asset classification requires an unexplained source; unrebutted affidavits and corroborative evidence defeated the Black Money Act...
The Tribunal addressed double disallowance of a subsidiary investment write-off by noting that the amount had already been added back in the return, so the Assessing Officer had duplicated the disallowance; the duplicate addition was to be deleted and the allowed deduction then given effect. It also accepted that fresh claims may be entertained on appeal and excluded broken period interest on debentures because the income had only accrued notionally and was already absorbed in the later capital gains on sale, avoiding double taxation. A dividend treaty-rate claim for non-resident shareholders was remanded for lack of foundational treaty-eligibility and tax-treatment material, and the challenge to initiation of penalty proceedings was dismissed as premature.
