230 Taxmann 268Supreme Court of India2015#1738 most cited

What is Rick Lunsford Trade & Investment Ltd. v. CIT 2016-TIOL- 207-SC-IT authority for?

When assessing unexplained cash credits, particularly share application money, the assessee must discharge the initial onus by proving the identity, creditworthiness of the investor, and genuineness of the transaction. Mere production of basic documents like PAN or incorporation certificate is insufficient if there is material to show the investor is a paper company or involved in accommodation entries.
