II. Recent Updates:
1. CIT Vs. WIMCO SEEDLINGS LTD., ITA No. 1367, 1368 & 1391/2008 DATE OF DECISION : 12 DECEMBER 2011, HIGH COURT OF DELHI
Whether common expenses incurred by an assessee can be allocated towards taxable and non-taxable income under the provisions of Section 14A of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
It was held that unless and until there was actual expenditure for earning the exempted income, there could not be any disallowance under section 14A. While we agree that the expression ‘expenditure incurred’ refers to actual expenditure and not to some imagined expenditure, we would like to make it clear that the ‘actual’ expenditure that is in contemplation under section 14A(1) of the said Act is the ‘actual’ expenditure in relation to or in connection with or pertaining to exempt income. The corollary to this is that if no expenditure is incurred in relation to the exempt income, no disallowance can be made under section 14A of the said Act.

2. CIT Vs. MONTO MOTORS LTD., ITA NO. 978/2011, DATE OF DECISION : 12 DECEMBER 2011, HIGH COURT OF DELHI
Advertisements and sales promotion are conducted to increase sale and their impact is limited and felt for a short duration. No permanent character or advantage is achieved and is palpable, unless special or specific factors are brought on record. Expenses for advertising consumer products generally are a part of the process of profit earning and not in the nature of capital outlay. The expenses in the present case were not incurred once and for all, but were periodical expenses which had to be incurred continuously in view of the nature of the business. It was an on-going expense.
