2015 (1) TMI 706 - HC - Income TaxExpenditure on the issue of convertible debentures - Revenue v/s capital expenditure - Held that:- Facts of the case clearly indicate that portion of the convertible debenture was converted into equity shares and assessee company had got enduring benefits and therefore, the expenditure incurred by the assessee on conversion of convertible debentures into equity shares has to be treated as capital expenditure. It may be noted that the Assessing Authority disallowed expenditure only to the extent pertaining to the convertible portion of the expenditure which formed part of the capital. As such disallowance made by the Income Tax Officer, which was confirmed by the Commissioner (Appeals) has to be sustained. The question of law raised by the Revenue, though not happily framed, is accordingly answered in the negative. Appeal dismissed. Decided in favour of revenue.
