Case Laws Income Tax AT

ITAT allowed partial relief to the assessee, directing deletion of multiple disallowances. The tribunal found no merit in the AO's disallowance of vehicle depreciation and interest expenses, citing possession and usage of assets as key determinants of ownership. Business promotion expenses appeal was dismissed due to cash expenditure. Loan interest disallowance was deleted citing insufficient nexus. The tribunal also set aside notional income addition on building construction expenditure and 5% salary expenses disallowance, emphasizing lack of substantive evidence and procedural irregularities in the AO's assessment. The ruling predominantly favored the assessee by directing removal of several disputed additions.
