Therefore, there was no question for claiming additional expenses against the additional income 2 offered by the assessee. The assessee claimed additional expenses, which was disallowed by assessing officer and confirmed by learned Commissioner (Appeals).

We have noted that the assessee has neither filed any documentary evidences before us not came forward to explain the fact regarding the claim of additional expenses. Therefore, we do not find any merits on the ground of appeal raised by assessee. In the result ground of appeal raised by assessee is rejected.
