“1. In the facts on the circumstances of the case, the Ld. CIT(A) has erred in law and / or on facts in deleting the addition on account of unexplained cash credits of Rs. 2,14,53,435/- made u/s 68 of the Act, considering that, the same are genuine. The Ld. CIT(A) didn’t appreciate the facts that, assessee failed to furnish the supporting evidences before Assessing Officer.
In the facts and on the circumstances of the case and in law, the Ld. CIT(A) ought to have upheld the order of the AO.”
In this case, the Assessing Officer made addition of Rs. 2,14,53,435/- under Section 68 of the Act on account of unsubstantiated creditors. Asst.Year –2016-17 - 2–
The Ld. CIT(A) has deleted the addition holding that the assessee has duly submitted relevant proves like copy of account for the A.Y. 2016-17, copy of the bills, confirmations, proof of payment and VAT return. The Ld. CIT(A) has also categorically held that the original bills of all the purchases for two months have been examined in the remand report by the Assessing Officer and the Assessing Officer has neither made any adverse remarks on the remand report nor any adverse material is brought to notice with regard to the sundry creditors of the goods. The Ld. CIT(A) held that the Assessing Officer in his remand report has accepted the genuinenity of the transactions, therefore, no addition can be made out of the outstanding balances.
Having gone through the record before us and also keeping in view the fact that nothing adverse has been brought to our notice and since the remand report has categorically accepted by the genuinenity of the sundry creditors we hold that no addition can be made on the difference in the sundry creditors as alleged by the Assessing Officer. The order of the Ld. CIT(A) is hereby affirmed.
