Inspire Films Ltd. v. ITO [2025] 170 taxmann.com 79 / 234 TTJ 1 (UO) (Mum.)(Trib.)

S. 40A(3): Business expenditure-Cash payments-Television serial production-Advances to cashier for petty expenses-Matter remanded for verification.

The assessee, engaged in the business of producing television serials, made cash advances to its cashiers for meeting petty shooting expenses such as conveyance, tea, coffee and snacks. It produced ledger accounts and sample vouchers showing that the actual cash expenditure on each occasion did not exceed the prescribed monetary limit. As neither the Assessing Officer nor the appellate authority examined the documentary evidence, the Tribunal restored the issue to the Assessing Officer for fresh verification. (AY. 2013-14).
