The answer to this question is given in DIT v. Brahamputra Capital Financial Services Ltd. (2011) 335 ITR 182 (Delhi).
The NBFC is bound by the NBFC Prudential Norms which states that interest on NPA shall be recognized only when it is actually realised.
The Delhi High Court held that it was prudent decision on part of the assessee that the interest on the non-performing asset, whose recovery was doubtful, was not accounted for in the books of account. Also the assessee was bound by The RBI guidelines, which required the said treatment of the interest income.
The High Court held that there was no real accrual of interest income in the hands of the assessee and it would not be chargeable to tax.
