that the assessee has entered into transactions with M/s Anishka

amount of Rs.9,55,000/- each and the same was treated as
unexplained expenditure u/s 69C of the Act which was sustained by
the Ld.CIT(A). The Ld. Counsel submits that in the course of
assessment proceedings the assessee vide letter dated 17.12.2018

Riddhi Siddhi Clothing Pvt. Ltd. and receipts and payments were
duly vouched and the payment was made by the assessee from his
bank account and the same was also being reflected in the bank
statement of the assessee which was completely ignored by the AO.
