INCOME TAX ACT, 1961

Section 11

Income of the trust is required to be computed under section 11 on commercial principles and, therefore, excess of expenditure incurred over income of earlier years was to be carried forward and set-off against income of subsequent years.

Charitable trust - Exemption under section 11 - Allowability of carry forward of excess of expenditure incurred over income -

Assessee-trust sought carry forward of deficit to subsequent years. AO denied this. Held: Income of the trust is required to be computed under section 11 on commercial principles. Accordingly, excess of expenditure incurred over income of earlier years was to be carried forward and set-off against income of subsequent years and such adjustment would not be deemed as application of income in subsequent years.
