Calculation of long term capital asset on the basis of indexation of cost


Quick Summary
This Income Tax Appellate Tribunal case concerns India Meters Ltd. (now Samrakhshana Electricals Ltd.) appealing the disallowance of certain expenses and capital losses for the 2003-04 assessment year. The Assessing Officer and Commissioner (Appeals) disallowed written-off expenditure and capital losses on share sales, questioning the substantiation and the reason for selling at cost price. The assessee argued that the loss on some shares arose solely due to indexation of the cost, and they were sold at book value.
