Deduction from other sources income

541 views 4 replies

I am a salaried assessee. I have some income from other sources like interest from FDs with banks, income from evaluation of answer books of students etc. My question is can I claim any deduction of expenses from income from other sources and offer the net figure for taxation. I think section 57 allows this.

Wanted to confirm from your goodselves.

 hi Dipjyoti,

Section 57 allows deduction of expenses incurred to earn the income from Other sources..

Your case can be divided into 2 parts :

1) FD interest requires no expenses to be incurred to earn the same and hence no expense can be claimed

2) CA paper checking - expenses of sending back the papers by speed post is the only expense you have to virtually spend to earn the said income
