no bcz such expense is not for company operations but company can claim deduction
Expenditure on CSR is allowable as business expenditure
Thank u
But how it can shown in financial statement !! it is after tax or before tax??
@ sunilahmad it will not be allowed as business expenditure at all.
I too know but the admissibility of CSR expenditure as business expenditure under section 37 was not clear due to differing Court rulings.
expenditure spent on CSR will be allowed under the Income-tax Act for the company will depend upon the nature of expenditure itself.In most of the cases which are not falling under the revenue expenditure, the Income Tax Officer will disallow these expenses.The company which is covered under the CSR Rules, will have to analyse whether the expenditure to be incurred will be done in a tax efficient manner.
nature of expenditure is irrelevant. csr expenditure is not for business operations and only expenses incurred in relation to business is allowed.
however, @ saviovsimon can claim deduction.
