27 November 2014 It will depend upon the nature of transaction. The hospitality pre say does NOT bar expenses on licquor.

27 November 2014 It will depend upon the situation.
There are many people in our country who carry with them excise liscence to hold, transport, consume licquor. Gujarath is also NOT exception to these people.
There are instances where Gujrath people honour the requests of their guest and take them to nearby Wapi area.....So? the point is it will depend upon the situation.
