04 December 2012 Look there are 2 things as regards to Personal Expenses of Director:-

1) IF COMPANY HAS SPECIFICALY AGRRED TO BEAR THE PERSONAL EXPENSES OF DIRECTOR THAT IS TO SAY THAT THERE IS NO MANIPULATION TO INCREASE THE EXPENSES, THEN IT IS ALLOWED AS DEDUCTION IN INCOME TAX AND NO ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITY IS THERE ON THE AUDITOR..

2) IF PERSONAL EXPENSES HAVE BEEN DEBITED TO PROFIT/LOSS A/C AS A MEANS TO REDUCE PROFIT THAT IS TO SAY THERE IS MANIPULATION, THEN SUCH EXPENSES WILL NOT BE ALLOWED AS DEDUCTION UNDER INCOME TAX..FURTHER AUDITOR IS REQUIRED TO CLEARLY MENTION THE FACT IN HIS REPORT OR QUALIFY IT AS MAY BE APPROPRIATE.

04 December 2012 This is a PERSONAL expense and NOT incurred wholly and exclusively for business.

Accordingly, this expense shall NOT be allowed as deduction.
