Business deduction under section 36(1)(iii) - Interest on borrowed capital - Assessee had sufficient funds for giving interest free advances to sister concern -
AO made disallowance of interest under section 36(1)(iii) on the ground that the interest on borrowed funds were not utilised for business purposes. Held: As assessee had filed the financial statements to show that the interest free funds available with it at the time of investments, were much more than the investments made, there was no merit in making disallowance of interest under section 36(1)(iii), especially when commercial expediency was also proved by assessee.
