I want to know whether Interest paid U/s.234A, 234B and 234C on Income Tax and Interest U/s.115WK on FBT is an allowable expenditure under IT Act.

Hi,
As Income tax paid is not allowable expenditure under Income tax Act, on the similar line interest paid u/s. 234 A, 234B & 234 C are just addition to the income tax which is not allowable. The similar fact you can put forward for FBT.
