If the loan is given then your company must have proof that all the money is recovered. when the money is recovered it could not be considred as income as money has been returned by the director. Simple rule is when the money is not in the pocket of dircetor then how can it be the money of director.riven

It is immaterial whether loan has been refunded by the directors or not,
Under deemed dividend provisions of Act u/s 2(22)(e) any loan or advance given by a company to any shareholder having beneficial shareholding of 10% or more is treated as dividend in the hands of recipient to the extent of accumulated profits of the company till the date of advance.
So Mr Sharma, I T Department is absolutely correct in its stand in the given circumstances.
