Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, HYDERABAD BENCHES “B” : HYDERABAD
Before: SHRI S.S.GODARA & SHRI LAXMI PRASAD SAHU
O R D E R PER S.S.GODARA, J.M. :
This assessee’s appeal for AY.2013-14 arises from the CIT(A)-1, Hyderabad’s order dated 10-04-2017 passed in case No.0262/CIT(A)-1/Hyd/2015-16/2016-17, in proceedings u/s.143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 [in short, ‘the Act’]. Heard both the parties. Case file perused.
Coming to the sole issue raised herein of correctness of both the lower authorities’ action making Section 68 un- explained cash credits addition of Rs.19 lakhs, we notice at the outset with the able assistance coming from both sides that although the assessee had not only placed on record the necessary bank statement but also confirmation of the creditor party Mr. Mohd.Ashrafuddin. The Assessing Officer as well as the CIT(A) have found technical shortcomings therein and more particularly in the creditors confirmation that the same does not contain even a date as well.
Faced with this situation, learned counsel undertakes before us to produce the assessee’s creditor party Mr. Mohd.Ashrafuddin if it afforded one more effective innings. We therefore partly decline the Revenue’s arguments supporting the impugned addition and direct the assessee to produce the creditor party, Mr. Mohd.Ashrafuddin on or before 30-11-2021 before the Assessing Officer; at its own risk and responsibility, to be followed by three effective opportunities of hearing. Ordered accordingly.
This assessee’s appeal is treated as allowed for statistical purposes in above terms.
