Freight and delivery charges incidental to sale only are deductible - Freight and delivery charges allowable as deduction are only those which are incidental to sale. Thus, in case of sale of goods from depot, transport charges from factory to the depot cannot be allowed as deduction - Dyer Meakin Breweries Ltd. v. State of Kerala - (1970) 26 STC 248 (SC).
