Income Tax Deduction not Available on Expenditure Incurred for Overseeing Project of Holding Company:
The Telangana High Court ruled that income tax deduction isn't available on expenses for overseeing a project of a holding company. The court held that such expenses don't constitute "business expenditure" under the Income Tax Act, 1961, as they weren't incurred for the taxpayer's own business activities.
