What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the assessee had provided sufficient evidence to prove the identity, creditworthiness, and genuineness of the share transactions. The AO and CIT(A) failed to conduct proper inquiries into the evidence submitted by the assessee.

What were the facts?

In de-novo proceedings, the AO made the addition as unexplained cash credit due to non-compliance with summons by directors.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
