Loss due to net banking fraud in a business account can be claimed as a business loss.
Establishing of a nexus for keeping company's funds in Director's personal a/c would make the company eligible for claiming the same as a loss.
However, if the director is a salaried person, no tax treatment is available unless he is engaged in any other business activity and it can be proved that the said a/c is being utilised for the purpose of such business.
