Hemant Surana, New Delhi vs Department Of Income Tax on 25 March, 2011

Indisputably, the assessee, a chartered accountant, incurred loss of ``3,11,85,809/- in the business of trading in shares. The AO disallowed the claim of set off of loss, having recourse to the explanation to section 37(1) of the Act while ld. CIT(A) allowed the claim on the ground that the said explanation was attracted only in the case of any expenditure and not in the event of loss. The issue before us is as to whether or not explanation below section 37(1) of the Act, inserted by the Finance Act, 1998 with retrospective effect from 1-4-1962, is applicable in this case.. This Explanation lays down that any expenditure incurred by an assessee for any purpose which is an offence or 6 ITA no.3245/Del./2011 & CO no. 237/Del./2011 which is prohibited by law shall not be deemed to have been incurred for the purpose of business and no deduction or allowance shall be made.
