It is noted that Barotiwala unit of the assessee has debited Rs. 1,11,199/- paid as insurance charges and against it claim of loss of Rs. 25,820/- was received during the year. It is the claim of the ld.

In our considered opinion, this proposition is not correct. If the insurance is claimed in the realm of revenue transaction, it will be allowed as deduction.
