No other information i.e. break-up of investment or schedules of the balance sheet were submitted to substantiate that no expenses were incurred towards earning exempt income. Therefore, we do not find any substance in the contention of the assessee of computing disallowance to the extent of Rs. 43,634/- towards expenditure incurred for earning exempt income, however, we restrict the disallowance to the extent of exempt income to the amount of Rs. 2,48,183/- as held in the various decisions of ITAT Ahmedabad i.e. Jivraj Tea Lt.

Accordingly, this ground of appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. The assessing officer has made disallowance of interest expenditure of Rs. 3,49,216/- u/s. 36(1)(iii) treating the advances made for non-business purposes. On this issue, the ld.
