Commissioner Of Income-Tax,West ... vs Calcutta Agency Ltd on 21 December, 1950

The burden of proving that a particular expenditure has been laid out or expended wholly and exclusively for the purposes of business so that the assessee may be entitled to claim deduction is on the assessee. This position is well settled by the judgments of the apex court in CIT v. Calcutta Agency Ltd. [1951] 19 ITR 191 and CIT v. Imperial Chemical Industries (India) (P.) Ltd. [1969] 74 ITR 17. The mere object of incurring expenditure is not decisive whether it is of a capital nature or revenue nature. Therefore, the onus is on the assessee to prove, inter alia, that the item of expenditure in question for admissibility to deduction is not in the nature of capital expenditure. Further, mere payment by itself would not entitle the assessee to deduction of the said expenditure unless the same was proved to be paid for commercial considerations. The onus of proof is always upon the assessee. It cannot be said that even if the taxpayer does not produce any evidence in support of the claim for deduction, the Assessing Officer himself independently is to collect evidence and decide that the deduction claimed is baseless having regard to the legitimate business needs of the assessee, as the Tribunal seems to think in the present case. It is for the taxpayer to establish by evidence that a particular allowance is justified.
