The amount of damages so paid is an allowable expenditure since it is in the
ordinary course of business. But supreme court in Travancore sugar's case
reported in (1973) 88 ITR (1) reminded that the surer way of arriving at a
conclusion would be to first ascertain by reference to the document under
which the obligation for incurring the expenditure is created and thereafter
to apply the principles embedded in the court decisions of those facts.
