* The said XYZ company gave a loan of Rs. 18 lacs to ABC & Co. out of which the firm paid Rs. 16 lacs to Mr. A.

(a) Will the provision of section 2(22) (e) of the Income Tax Act be applicable for this transaction?

If yes, what will be the amount of deemed dividend in the hands of Mr. A?

In another situation XYZ Ltd. has repaid of Rs. 18 lacs against loan taken by it from ABC & Co. and ABC & Co. in turn gave loan to MR. A by debiting his capital account.
