01. Bad debts entry have been written off in the books of accounts with the respective Debtors.
02. Debts have been created through entry credited in the profit and Loss Account in the past.

if above mentioned conditions are satisfied then you will be eligible to claim deduction for the same. AO has no authority to denied the spirit of Law.

You can take the stand of following judgment: -

These are the judement where bad debts related issue have been sort out by the hon'able SC.
