..... date of conversion or succession shall be allowed in the hands of the firm and expenses incurred after the conversion of succession shall be allowed in the hands of succeeding company. We find that the professional expenditure pertains to earlier period. Therefore, in respect of disallowance towards CA’s bills is justified. In respect of disallowance of wages to workers and packing credit bank loan interest, we find no merit into the contention of the assessee.

We find that the preliminary expenses are in respect of incorporation of the company; however, the Assessing Officer assumed the expenses for the whole year and disallowed proportionately.

In this case, the bank had debited ₹ 15,65,807/- on 31.12.2007 and therefore, the liability arose on 31.12.2007. We do not find force in this submission of the assessee as the interest is debited on daily basis but not on monthly basis. Therefore, the contention of the assessee in this regard is rejected, being devoid of any merit. 6.1 With regard to preliminary expenses amounting to ₹ 1,54,570/-, it is submitted that the preliminary expenses of ₹ 11,09,260/- actually pertained to the company itself and therefore, 20% of ₹ 11,09,260/ .....
