The Tribunal held that the assessee was justified in not providing for the disputed interest in earlier years. The liability crystallized in the current year when the dispute was resolved, and the interest expenditure should be allowed in this year.
The Tribunal held that the major portion of the cash deposit (Rs. 37,27,070/-) was explained by withdrawals and earlier evidence. However, Rs. 5,62,430/- remained unexplained as the assessee failed to substantiate it in fresh proceedings.

The Tribunal accepted the assessee's request for withdrawal of the appeal. The appeal was dismissed as withdrawn.
The Tribunal held that the provisions of Section 13(1)(d) and Section 11(5) were not applicable in this case as the advances were not considered investments or deposits. The Tribunal noted that there was no mandate requiring corpus donations to be invested in specified modes.
The Tribunal held that the second proviso to Section 269SS provides an exception for cash loans where both the borrower and lender have agricultural income and no other income chargeable to tax.

The Tribunal held that the assessee's business was not set up during the relevant previous year as it was still in the process of fit-out works and not in a position to procure business or deliver services. Consequently, the expenses claimed as business expenditure were not deductible.
The Tribunal restored the appeal to the file of the CIT(A) for a fresh decision. The assessee was directed to present their case with evidence, and the CIT(A) was instructed to provide a sufficient opportunity of being heard.

The Tribunal held that the assessment proceedings were initiated against a non-existent entity, making the notice u/s 148 and the subsequent assessment order invalid. The fact that the company was struck off prior to the initiation of proceedings is a crucial factor.
The Tribunal held that the credits received from the engine supplier were capital in nature, based on previous year's decisions. Regarding supplementary lease rentals, the Tribunal found that under the India-Ireland DTAA, payments for aircraft rentals are not taxable in India.
The Tribunal held that CSR expenditure, when incurred and debited in the Profit and Loss account, cannot be added back to book profits under Section 115JB. The Assessing Officer cannot alter the book profits as disclosed in the audited accounts unless specifically provided for in the explanations to Section 115JB.

The Tribunal held that the addition of share capital and premium was justified as the assessee failed to discharge the onus under Section 68. The share applicants were found to be shell companies, and the transactions appeared to be a method of introducing unaccounted money.
