Learn MoreFacts:
The assessee was 100% exporter. Its claim for allowability of Rs.33.6 lakh as bad debts was disallowed by the AO on the grounds amongst others that it was allowed deduction u/s.80HHC. The CIT(A) dismissed the appeal for the reason that the assessee had not taken RBI’s permission for writing off of debts.
Held:
The Tribunal noted that the assessee had not included the unrealised export bills while claiming deduction u/s.80HHC. Further, relying on the decision of the Delhi High Court in the case of CIT v. Nilofer I. Singh, (309 ITR 233), it held that obtaining RBI’s permission for write-off of dues on a foreign importer was an irrelevant factor, so far as admissibility of deduction as bad debt was concerned. Relying on the Supreme Court decision in the case of TRF Ltd. v. CIT, (323 ITR 397), the Tribunal allowed the appeal of the assessee.
