Touch Finance Ltd. A.Y.2009-10
After hearing the rival contentions I am of the considered view that the issue in question requires fresh adjudication in accordance with law as the AO has not verified the claim of the assessee of having paid for the transactions in question through banking channels. The assessee has produced details from its bank to demonstrate its case that the transactions in question were genuine and the loss is not a factitious loss. The ld. CIT(A) while recording the claim of the assessee that it has made all payments by cheques to the brokers directly, has not verified the bank details submitted by the assessee.
Under this circumstances, I set aside the matter to the AO with the direction that the bank details furnished by the assessee be verified.
