सुनवाई की तारीख / Date of Hearing : 04.10.2022 घोषणा की तारीख / Date of Pronouncement : 10.10.2022 आदेश / ORDER PER S. S. GODARA, JM :
This assessee’s appeal for AY 2009-10 arises against the CIT(A)-8, Pune’s order dated 20/09/2019 passed in case No. PN/CIT(A)-3/ITO wd 2(3)/13/2018-19/341 involving proceedings u/s 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961; in short "the Act”.
Heard both the parties. Case file perused.
Mr. Vijay Vitthal Raut,
It appears at the outset that the assessee is aggrieved against the CIT(A)’s lower appellate discussion confirming unexplained cash credits addition 39,00,000/- as against Rs.50,45,000/-(comprising of Rs.43,45,000/- and Rs.7,00,000/-) added in the assessment herein framed on 21.12.2011. Learned counsel stated very fairly that the assessee does not press for the forgoing sum Rs.7,00,000/- involving savings bank accounts No. 8714 maintained with the Osmanabad Janta Co-operative Bank. Rejected accordingly.
3. Next comes the second unexplained bank deposit addition of Rs.43,45,000 which has been restricted to Rs.32,00,000/- in the lower appellate order. The CIT(A)’s detailed discussion in para 6.7 onwards clarifies that the assessee had attributed source of the impugned cash deposits to S/Shri Yashwant V. Raut, Jyoti Rama Raut, Hauserao G. Raut, Prbhat D. Raut, Somanath D. Raut, Vitthal S. Raut, and Satyabhama V.Raut Rs.6,00,000/-, Rs.5,00,000/-, Rs.6,35,000/-, Rs.8,00,000/-, Rs.4,50,000/-, Rs.7,00,000/-, and Rs.6,50,000/-; respectively, which stood accepted to the tune of Rs.11,35,000/- involving second and third party hereinabove. We note in this factual backdrop that the learned authorities failed to consider the most clinching aspect that saving bank account in issue i.e.12595 was in the joint names of S/Shri V.V. Raut (assessee), S.B. Raut and M.L.Bangru whereas the entire cash deposit have been added in this taxpayer’s hands only. Faced with the situation, we conclude the impugned remaining addition of Rs.32 lakhs ought to upheld only to the tune of Rs.1/3 share in assessee’s name than in entirety. We partly accept the assessee’s instant substantive
Mr. Vijay Vitthal Raut, ground to this limited extent and leave to open for the Assessing Officer to frame his consequential computation.
No other ground has been pressed before us.
4. This assessee’s appeal is partly allowed in above terms. Order pronounced in the Open Court on this 10th day of October, 2022.
