The reasons for withdrawing cash in 2013 and keeping it with daughters for potential emergencies were not substantiated with concrete evidence. Therefore, the addition made by the Assessing Officer and sustained by the CIT(A) was upheld.

The Tribunal held that the AO's assessment order was erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of revenue due to inadequate inquiry and non-application of mind. The PCIT rightly invoked Section 263, setting aside the assessment order for fresh examination.
