Sec 14A is for Expenditure incurred in relation to income not includible in total income. So expenses incurred for agricultural practices cannot be allowed if there is agricultural income
But I want an example on second point, precisely I want mathematical application

Rule 8D provides maximum disallowance under Sec14A = Direct expenditure related to exempt income + 1% of average investments (if income on investment is exempt) Loan taken for investments - interest on loan is direct exp 1 step - compute monthly averages of investment balances 2 step - compute annual average of 1st step 3 step - compute 1% of step 2 4 step - add 1% computed to direct exp see the example posted by Deepak Gupta
