It is a fact that assessee is providing unsecured loan to its sister concern without
any interest or security, which is not reasonable & undue benefit for assessee's
sister concern. So assessee claim of exemption is denied u/s 13(l)(c) and u/s
13(l)(d) of I.T. Act, 1961. There is case law regarding this where Hon'ble Madras
High Court in case of CIT Vs V.G.P. Foundation 183 CTR Mad 330, 2003/262 ITQ
187 has held that uit cannot be said on the facts of this case that the money had
been applied by the assessee for charitable purpose in this year. The fact that
the money, instead of lying with the assessee had laid with the sister company
would not result in that amount being regarded as application of funds for a
charitable purpose. Had the money remained with the assessee, it certainly
could not have been regarded as having been utilised for charitable purposes. By
giving it to a sister ^company which merely retained the money with it for the
whole of the yaar, it is not possible to give the assessee the benefit regarding the
amount as having been applied for a charitable purpose. There has also been
contravention of Section 13(l)(d) read with Section 11(5) of the Act inasmuch as
the trustees are also directors of the company and that company had the benefit
of this amount throughout the year. The assessee did not realise any interest on
that amount nor did it have any security for the amount so made available to
the sister company. The questions referred to us are therefore answered in
favour of the Revenue and against the assessee."
