What did the Tribunal hold?

What were the facts?

What were the issues?
Whether interest expenditure incurred through artificial transactions to claim deduction under Section 80IB is allowable. Whether disallowance under Section 14A is warranted when exempt income is earned but no disallowance is offered.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
