Necessity of establishing nexus between expenditure incurred and earning of exempt income u/s 14A read with Rule 8D. Mechanical application of Rule 8D without recording requisite satisfaction violates procedural requirement u/s 14A(2). Disallowance restricted to exempt income earned. Deletion of addition for bogus long-term capital loss upheld due to lack of substantial evidence and failure to provide opportunity for cross-verification.
