The books profits of the company has been reduced considerably because of the interest cost of the said loan raised.
Please advise :

c) Implication of Section 115JB

1.No implication under 2(22) as no shareholder had substantial Interest
2.I THINK, not sure, It is covered by Section 14A, i.e interest exps incurred to earning exempt Income,and hence not allowed.
3. On the basis of 2nd point, It should be added to book profit u/s 115JB.
4.As per CARO, When company gives interest free loan to any person , the said fact should be required to be disclosed by Auditor. In Your case, as it is approved by Shareholder, no consequences.
