The court referred to a Supreme Court case stating statements under FERA can't be used for Income Tax proceedings. Two proceedings are independent. The case concerns contravention of FERA Section 9(1)(c) for a transfer of US $5 Lakhs. It was deemed a temporary loan. The Appellant Company contravened FERA. Shri R C Jain and Shri Vikram Singh were found responsible. The Director of the company also violated Section 8(1) for a US $1 lakh remittance. The charge against the Appellant Company was dropped, but the Director was found guilty. The contravention of Section 8(1) by individual / director was upheld, and US $1 lakh was confiscated.
