....debt' but not as a loan /advance, without appreciating the fact that the assessee had availed loans on various dates from the company in which he had substantial interest. 2. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the CIT(A) has further erred in allowing benefit to the assessee by deleting the said addition of Rs. 18,00,000/-, without appreciating the fact that the provisions of section 2(22)(e) are deeming provisions as per which any loan /advance availed by a person having substantial interest in the company is to be treated as dividend because the case is not covered by any of the exceptions. Such a view is also supported by the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Tarulata Shyam & others vs CIT(1977)108 ITR....

.... used in section 2(22)(e). Such an interpretation was never intended by the Legislature. If that be so each and every entry of credit in the account of the company will be treated as profit. If repayment of the credit made will mean the return of income. This type of juggled income was never anticipated by the Legislature. There being no contract or agreement for raising of loan and advance the terms of its acceptance and repayment, the transaction can, at best be treated as a 'debt' but not 'loan or advance'. This ground is, therefore, allowed." We are of the opinion that Ld. CIT(A) has correctly adjudicated the issue.

....see has also given similar advances to the company, therefore, these transactions are on account of temporary loans in the nature of current account and cannot be termed as loan and advances as contained in section 2(22)(e) of the Act. Therefore, we find nothing wrong in the order of Ld. CIT(A) and we confirm the same. 8. Ground No.3 : After hearing both the parties, we find that during assessment proceedings it was noticed that assessee has taken loans form various parties. One loan amounting to Rs. 4 lakhs was taken from Shree Ganesh Ispat Industries.
