  1. Ms. Shamita is running successfully the business of supplying &selling woolens on the digital platform. She is keen to understand how business expenses are allowed under the Indian Income Tax Act 1961. However, these days she is more concerned about whether there is any provision under the Act which allows claiming deductions in relation to residuary expenses. As a knowledgeable person in taxation, how will you address the worry of Ms. Urrjja. Is there any provision under the IT Act which allows to claim deductions of residual expenses? If yes, how can she avail the benefit of the said provision for her business?
