CIT v. Dayachand Jain Vaidya
What is CIT v. Dayachand Jain Vaidya authority for?
When an assessee furnishes a particular explanation and adduces evidence in support thereof, the onus shifts to the Assessing Officer to falsify the said material or bring new material on record. Mere rejection of a good explanation does not convert good proof into no proof, making additions based on unsubstantiated grounds unsustainable if the AO fails to discharge this onus.
