Business deduction under section 36(1)(iii) - Interest on borrowed capital - Advancement of interest free loans to sister concerns - Assessee having sufficient own funds
Assessee claimed deduction under section 36(1)(iii). AO disallowed assessee's claim proportionately on the ground of assessee having advanced interest free loan to subsidiary companies. Assessee pleaded to have sufficient own funds. Held: Interest free funds available with assessee amounted to Rs. 16 crores, whereas interest free loans given to subsidiary companies stood at Rs. 10 crores, therefore, it could be safely presumed that loans were given out of interest free funds and accordingly, no disallowance of deduction under section 36(1)(iii) was called for.
