Facts

The Revenue appealed against the CIT(A)'s order which deleted a significant portion of the addition made by the AO on account of bogus purchases. The AO had taxed the entire purchases of Rs. 5,05,15,186/- after the assessee surrendered Rs. 2,71,50,000/-. The CIT(A) restricted the addition to 12.5% of the bogus purchases.

Held

The Tribunal held that the CIT(A) was not justified in making a partial disallowance and deleting the addition of Rs. 2,33,65,186/-. The assessee failed to prove the genuineness of the purchases with corroboratory evidence.

Key Issues

Whether the CIT(A) was justified in deleting the addition on account of bogus purchases and restricting it to a profit element, despite the assessee's failure to prove genuineness.
