https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=472291 Long-term capital loss on a documented share sale to an unrelated purchaser remains allowable unless evidence establishes that the apparent transaction is false; tax reduction alone does not make it sham. Shares consistently held as investments, with delivery and limited transactions, generate capital rather than business losses. Advertising, brand, trademark, business-development, professional, and premises-rent costs supporting operations without creating a capital asset are revenue expenditure. No notional interest arises on an interest-free advance where sufficient interest-free funds exist and no borrowed-fund nexus is shown. Short tax deduction at source does not trigger expenditure disallowance. Exchange gain on borrowing for capital assets is capital in character. Accrued zero-coupon debenture premium is proportionately deductible where the recipient is unidentifiable at year-end, and a valid deduction claim may be considered on appeal despite omission from the return. en-us Tue, 28 Jun 2022 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 07 Oct 2026 11:18:47 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=472291 Long-term capital loss on a documented share sale to an unrelated purchaser remains allowable unless evidence establishes that the apparent transaction is false; tax reduction alone does not make it sham.
