PER D. KARUNAKARA RAO, AM: This appeal filed by the assessee on 21.8.2014 is against the order of the CIT (A)-10, Mumbai dated 28.2.2014 for the assessment year 2009-2010. 2. In this appeal, assessee raised seven grounds in toto and they revolve around the issue relating to the addition of Rs. 38,05,948/- made on account of unexplained investments u/s 69 of the Act. In this regard, Ld Counsel for the assessee submitted before us that the assessee is a Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) and registered voluminous transactions in trading shares. The Department received information from AIR and called the assessee for reconciliation. During the assessment proceedings, nearly more than 90% of the transactions were reconciled leaving the volume of transactions of Rs. 14.04 Crs involving four transactions. The details are given in a table at page 11 of the order of the CIT (A) and the same is as under:-

Accordingly, the relevant additions are required to be deleted. We order accordingly.
Regarding Sl. No.4 above, Ld Counsel for the assessee submitted that the assessee now submits additional evidence, placed at Annexure-B to the said letter dated 3.3.2016 and pleads for admitting the same and remanding the matter to the file of the AO for fresh decision in this regard.
After hearing both the parties and on perusal of the orders of the Revenue Authorities as well as the relevant material placed before us, we find merit in the Ld Counsel’s submissions. Accordingly, we admit the said additional evidences and remand the same to the file of the AO for fresh adjudication in this regard. AO shall grant a reasonable opportunity of being heard to the assessee. Accordingly, Grounds raised by the assessee are allowed for statistical purposes.
