Section 14A Disallowance | Own Funds Exceeding Investments Exempt Assessee from Rule 8D Disallowance: ITAT Delhi
ITAT Delhi holds that if an assessee’s own funds exceed investments yielding exempt income, disallowance under Section 14A read with Rule 8D is unjustified. The ruling clarifies that the AO must demonstrate direct expenditure linked to exempt income before invoking disallowance, impacting tax assessments for entities with substantial reserves.
