Please help me in solving this query.
A private limited company is being voluntarily liquidated. The I.T returns for the FY 2019-20 needs to be filed.
It has a business loss. The reason for business loss is the liquidation expenses. Almost 90% of the business loss is due to liquidation expenses (like remuneration paid to liquidator etc.).
The company has also got some Foreign Exchange gain during the FY 2019-20 which is part of business loss.
My questions are as follows:
a. Whether the liquidation expenses are allowable as a business expenses?
b. Whether business loss arising from the liquidation expenses can be set off with the Foreign Exchange gain?
c. Also do let me know if there are any provisions and case laws in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
