Issues involved: Appeal u/s 260A of Income-tax Act, 1961 against order of ITAT regarding addition of excess stock of cotton found during inspection.
Summary: The revenue appealed against the ITAT order regarding the addition of excess stock of cotton found during inspection. The Assessing Officer contended that the excess stock should be added to the income as it was not entered in the books of account. However, the assessee explained that there was no excess stock and paid a sum towards market fee as a compromise. The CIT(A) accepted the assessee's explanation, which was upheld by the Tribunal. The Tribunal's decision was based on the findings that the purchases were entered in the books, and there was no adverse inference by the Assessing Officer. The Tribunal confirmed certain additions but granted relief to the appellant on the main issue. The High Court found the Tribunal's view reasonable and not perverse, thus dismissing the appeal.
