Issues involved: Whether the Tribunal was justified in deleting the additions made by the Assessing Officer towards the assessee's claim of payment to labour contractor and salary and wages paid to the workers/supervisors.
Summary: The High Court of Bombay addressed the appeal concerning the deletion of additions made by the Assessing Officer regarding the payment to a labour contractor and salary/wages to workers/supervisors. The Assessing Officer based the additions on a worker/supervisor's statement during survey proceedings. However, the Tribunal found that the worker's statement was retracted and inconsistent with the facts on record. Additionally, statements from a partner and another worker confirmed that more than 10 persons were working at the unit, supported by payment vouchers and books of accounts showing payments made through cheques. Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that the deletion of the additions was justified based on these factual findings. The appeal was dismissed, as no merits were found in challenging the Tribunal's decision.
