SOURABH AGROTECH PRIVATE LIMITED ,ALWAR vs. DCIT, CENTRAL CIRCLE, ALWAR
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that additions in completed assessments under Section 153A cannot be made without any incriminating material found during the search, following the Supreme Court's decision in Pr.

What were the issues?
Whether additions under Section 153A are permissible in completed assessments without incriminating material found during a search. Whether amounts collected as 'Dharmada/charity' can be added to income without proper justification and incriminating material.
