AI SummaryDismissed

What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the assessee, not being a cooperative bank with a banking license, was not eligible for deduction under Section 80P on interest earned from scheduled banks, distinguishing it from cases involving cooperative banks. The CIT(A)'s partial relief was found to be unsustainable.

What were the facts?

The assessee, a cooperative society, earned interest income from surplus funds invested in banks. The Assessing Officer denied deduction under Section 80P, treating the interest as income from other sources. The CIT(A) granted partial relief, allowing deduction on interest earned from reserves and on expenditure against non-business income.

What were the issues?

Whether interest income earned by a cooperative society from deposits with scheduled banks is eligible for deduction under Section 80P, and whether the assessee qualifies as a cooperative bank for such deductions.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 80P
