16 September 2009 Fees paid to the RoC for increase in authorised capital is a capital expenditure not deductible u/s 37(1) but deductible u/s 35D.

Citation:-

1. Punjab State Industrial Development Corporation Ltd 225 ITR 792 (Sc).

2. Mohan Meakin Breweries Ltd 117 ITR 501 (HP)- says that Fees paid for increase of authorised capital is an inadmissable expenses.
