1. There were a lot of debates whether such expenses should be treated as revenue expenditure or capital expenditure. Various courts and tribunals support the view of treating the expenditure incurred on increasing the share capital as capital expenditure.
2. Now, if such expenditures are covered u/s 35D(2), then it will be allowed over a period of 5 years from the year in which such expenditures are incurred.
3. In your case ROC fee paid towards increasing the authorized capital will be allowed as deductions u/s 35D over a period of 5 years.
Please correct me if the above solution has an alternative view.
