आदेश/Order
Per Sanjay Garg, Judicial Member :
The present appeal has been preferred by the
assessee against the order dated 16.03.2018 of the
Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-3, [hereinafter referred
to as CIT(A)],Ludhiana.
The sole issue raised in this appeal is relating to
disallowance of expenditure incurred for earning of tax
exempt income under the provisions of Section 14A of the
Income Tax Act,1961. At the outset, ld. counsel for the
assessee has submitted that the assessee during the year
did not earn any tax exempt income. He, therefore, has
submitted that the issue is squarely covered by the
various decisions of the higher Courts including the
jurisdictional Hon'ble Punjab & Haryana High Court in the
ITA-613/CHD/2018 Page 2 of 2
case of CIT Faridabad v. Lakhani Marketing INC 226
Taxmann 45 (P&H) and also by the decision of Hon'ble
Delhi High Court in case of Cheminvest Ltd. Vs. CIT
(2015) 378 ITR 33 (Del) and further of the Hon'ble
Allahabad High Court in the case of CIT Vs. M/s Shivam
Motors (P) Ltd. (2014) 272 CTR 277 (All). In view of this,
the issue is squarely covered in favour of the assessee.
Hence, respectfully following the proposition of law laid
down by various High Courts, disallowance, if any, made
by the lower authorities in this case under the provisions
of Section 14A of the Act is ordered to be deleted.
In the result, appeal of the assessee stands allowed.
Order Pronounced in the Open Court on 11.01.2019.
