Commissioner Of Income Tax, Delhi vs M/S Woodward Governor India P. Ltd on 8 April, 2009

14. The treatment to be given to foreign currency items as per the amended AS - 11 of ICAI, notified by Central Government u/s. 211(3C) of Companies Act, does not make any distinction between items of capital nature and revenue nature.

Sutlej Cotton Mills Ltd vs Commr. Of Income Tax, West Bengal, ... on 27 September, 1978

Ltd. [2009] 312 ITR 254/179 Taxman 326 where in the SC relied on the earlier judgment in the case of Sutlej Cotton Mills Ltd. v. CIT [1979] 116 ITR 1, observed that the law may, therefore, now be taken to be well settled that where profit or loss arises to an assessee on account of appreciation or depreciation in the value of foreign currency held by it, on conversion into another currency, such profit or loss would ordinarily be a trading profit or loss if the foreign currency is held by the assessee on revenue account or as a trading asset or as part of circulating capital embarked in the business. But, if on the other hand, the foreign currency is held as a capital asset or as fixed capital, such profit or loss would be of capital nature."

Commissioner Of Income Tax,Panji vs V.S.Dempo Co.Ltd. Panji on 5 September, 2016

15. Further in the aforesaid ruling the Apex Court also affirmed the principles laid down in the ruling of CIT v. V.S. Dempo & Co. (P.) Ltd. [1994] 206 ITR 291/72 Taxman 134 (Bom.), wherein it was held that a loss arising in the process of conversion of foreign currency which is part of trading asset of the assessee is a trading loss as any other loss. In determining the true nature and character of the loss, the cause which occasions the loss is immaterial; what is material is whether the loss has occurred in the course of carrying on the business or is incidental to it. If there is loss in a trading asset, it would be a trading loss, whatever be its cause because it would be a loss in the course of carrying on the business. Loss in respect of circulating capital is revenue loss whereas loss in respect of fixed capital is not. Loss resulting from depreciation of the foreign currency which is utilised or intended to be utilised in business and is part of the circulating capital, would be a trading loss, but depreciation of fixed capital on account of alteration in exchange rate would be capital loss. For determining whether devaluation loss is revenue loss or capital loss what is relevant is the utilisation of the amount at the time of devaluation and not the object for which the loan had been obtained. The way in which the entries are made by an assessee in the books of account is not determinative of the question whether the assessee has earned any profit or suffered any loss. What is necessary to be considered is the true nature of the transaction and whether in fact it has resulted in profit or loss to the assessee. Therefore, once loss incurred on account of fluctuation in foreign currency, then the loss suffered shall be allowed as business loss, unless it is in the nature of speculation loss.
