Interest on income tax and wealth tax is not allowable but interest on service tax is allowable.Interest on income tax and wealth tax takes the character of income tax as well as wealth tax respectively as judicially held in many decisions whereas interest on service tax is genuine business expenditure allowable u/s 37.


Interest On Income Tax Is Certainly Allowed Because Ineterest Received On Income Tax Refund Is Chargeable To Tax.
