The facts of the case are that a search action u/s 132 of the Act was conducted at various premises of the concerns / business associates of Sagar Group on 20.10.2011. The assessee is an individual and having income from business of civil contractor and house property.

Regular return of income was filed on 30.09.2012 declaring total income of Rs. 19,86,030/on 15.10.2013. During the course of assessment proceedings, various additions to the income of the assessee were made.

Total income assessed Rs. 2,06,56,539/-
Thereafter, the assessee preferred first statutory appeal before the learned CIT(A) who partly allowed the appeal of the assessee.
Now, the Revenue has preferred appeal before us.
We have gone through the impugned order and detailed paper book filed by the assessee and heard both the parties. In this case, certain details were filed by the assessee in support of his contention and learned CIT(A) sought remand report on each and every addition made by the learned AO and a detailed paper book containing pages 413 have been filed. A certificate issued by the counsel certifying that all the details were before the AO and CIT(A). Learned DR could not point out any specific ambiguity in the order of the learned CIT(A). After examining the paper [DCIT vs. Shri Prakash Wadhvani] AY 2012-13 - 4 - book and going through the CIT(A)’s order, we do not find any infirmity in the order passed by the learned CIT(A). Therefore, we are not inclined to interfere with the order passed by the learned CIT(A).
In the result, the appeal filed by the Revenue is dismissed.
