Make out case for - a.no tax was deductible by assessee as such and on respective payments as well, there is no scn or advice from ITO TDS or any other quarters. b. The amount paid is allowable u/s 28 rws 145(e.g. in case of creation or purchase of stock-in-trade) and not under s. 30-38 so s.40 is not applicable. c. the payees have declared that there income was not taxable and in case of need shall produce certification for no TDS/ assessment orders in their case or other relevan document. d. any other ground which may be appropirate in given case.
