What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal found no basis for the Assessing Officer's estimation of construction costs and progress. It also noted that the assessee had explained the sources for purchasing a flat.

What were the facts?

The assessee's assessment was reopened following a survey. Additions were made for unexplained investment in construction and agricultural income. The CIT(A) granted partial relief on construction costs but deleted additions on agricultural income.

What were the issues?

Whether additions for unexplained investment in construction are justified without proper basis, and if sources for property purchase are adequately explained.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 44AD,Section 133A,Section 147,Section 148,Section 143(3),Section 69C,Section 56(2)(vii)(b)
