Issues involved: Addition of undisclosed income due to differences in accounting of purchases and sales during a survey u/s 133A for the assessment year 2007-08.
Summary: The appellant, a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) trading in coffee seeds, challenged the addition of Q 25,64,832 as undisclosed income by the CIT(Appeals) for discrepancies in accounting purchases and sales during a survey. The Assessing Officer found unaccounted purchases and sales in the books produced during the survey, attributing it to wrong entries by employees. The AO rejected the explanation and treated the difference as suppressed profit. The CIT(Appeals) upheld the addition based on the AO's findings from impounded registers. The appellant contended that a recast statement of accounts showed lower profit. The ITAT observed that the authorities failed to consider that sales included gross profit, necessitating exclusion for accurate income calculation. The matter was remanded to the CIT(Appeals) for reevaluation, emphasizing fair hearing for the appellant. In conclusion, the appellant's appeal was allowed for statistical purposes, with the case remanded to the CIT(Appeals) for a thorough review considering the gross profit element in sales for accurate income determination.
