Expenses disallowed as Prior Period Expenses

Tax queries 1095 views 2 replies

Can the following expenses be disallowed as prior period expenses ?

 

  • Annual General Meeting of a company for 31.3.2019 held during FY 2019-2020. Expenses relating to the AGM like Printing of Annual report, Postage for sending Annual report, Professional fee paid to Registrar & Share transfer agent etc were paid during FY 2019-2020. Since the expenses were spent during FY 2019-2020, can those expenses be disallowed as Prior period as they relate to FY 2018-2019 ?

 

  • Audit Fee of FY 2018-2019 paid during FY 2019-2020 ; Audit services rendered during 2019-2020 though audit period relates to 2018-2019. (assuming no provision made & TDS not applicable)

The prior period expense partaining to earlier years has been a matter of litigation whether such expense could be allowed as deduction during the current year .
Prior period expenses are not allowed in current year untill and unless the expenses have crystalised during the year.
