DCIT, CIRCLE-10(1), DELHI vs. INDIAN RENEWABLE ENERGY DEVELOPMENT AGENCY LIMITED, DELHI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that the assessee was eligible for deduction under Section 36(1)(viii) as the income was derived from long-term financing.

Expenses for promoting Hindi language were also considered business-related.
What were the facts?

The CIT(A) partly allowed the assessee's appeal.
