No disallowance under section 14A read with rule 8D could be made as there was absence of any exempt income reported by the assessee during the year under consideration.

Disallowance under section 14A - Expenditure against exempt income - Absence of exempted income -

Held: No infirmity could be found in the order of CIT(A) deleting the disallowance made by AO under section 14A as the absence of any exempt income reported by the assessee during the year under consideration, there was no question of making any disallowance under section 14A. The same was accordingly upheld on this issue dismissing the appeal of the revenue.
