Under Income Tax Act, all expenditure which are of capital nature, is not allowed as deduction unless specifically provided. In respece of the same, a ENABLING provision is provided by way of section 35D. Accordingly, only those preiliminary expenses which are specifically enumerated in the said section, are allowed to be deferred and amortised over a period of 5 years. All other preliminary expenditure which are not specifically mentioned in the said section are treated as capital expense for which no deduction is allowed under IT Act.
