    In this case, the assessment year involved is 2006-07. Rule 8D was introduced with effect from 24/03/2008 which was prospective in operation and cannot be applied retrospectively as held by the Delhi High Court in the case of Maxopp Investment Ltd. vs. CIT. Accordingly, we direct the AO to disallow only 2% of expenses incurred towards exempted income. Thus, this ground of appeal of the assessee is partly allowed. High Court observed in the case of Harrisons Malayalam Ltd that sale of old and unyielding trees would not give rise to the exempt income.
