CIT(A) errs in not considering that section 14A provides for expenditure incurred for earning exempt income


Quick Summary
The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal ruled that the CIT(A) made an error by not properly considering Section 14A of the Income Tax Act. This section pertains to the disallowance of expenditure incurred for earning income that is exempt from tax. The tribunal's decision implies that such expenses should be disallowed, even if the income itself is not taxable.
