    <title>Taxpayer&#039;s foreign equity write-off treated as deductible business loss; s.68/115BBE addition deleted for documented advance</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93615</link>
    <description>The ITAT allowed the appeal, holding that the assessee&#039;s equity investments in its foreign wholly-owned subsidiary were bona fide business investments made to acquire and expand an operating concern abroad; the write-off of the foreign investment (Rs. 97,61,190) was a commercial loss deductible as business loss (not capital loss or bad debt) and the Commissioner (A) was reversed. The Tribunal also deleted an addition under s.68/115BBE in respect of USD 154,282 (Rs. 99,23,830), finding the receipt to be an advance against supplies from an identified related foreign customer remitted through banking channels with supporting documentation; consequently the identity, genuineness and source were established. Ground(s) allowed.</description>
