Provisions for bad debt to be added back to calculate book profits; reassessment upheld on basis of retro-amendment
IT: In view of retrospective amendment brought by Finance (No.2) Act, 2009 in section 115JB, Assessing Officer was justified in initiating reassessment proceedings taking a view that assessee was required to add 'provision for bad and doubtful debts' to net profit while computing book profits under section 115JB
IT: Since accounting principles on basis of which accounts are prepared under Companies Act, terms 'bad debts' and 'provision for bad and doubtful debts' have distinct meaning, Assessing Officer was justified in making addition of said provision in computing 'book profit' under section 115JB
