20 June 2008 I want to know about section- 14A of Income Tax Act & Rule-8D of Income Tax Rules. Is this section applies to Bonus Shares also. If yes, then what would be the value of such shares.

The fact is: Assessee: NBFC Company.

AO has re-opened the case for AY: 01-02 u/s 147, the grounds on which AO has re-opened the case is- he wants to disallow company's total expenditure in properation of dividend income(Exempeted Income) as per Section- 14A & Rule-8D

Is AO is correct or not?

pls reply me asap.

thanks
