Issues involved:
The issues involved in this judgment are: 1. Addition of capital contribution under Rule 46A of IT Rules, 1962. 2. Addition of unexplained loan under section 68 of IT Act. Issue 1: Addition of capital contribution under Rule 46A of IT Rules, 1962 The Assessing Officer (AO) made an addition of Rs. 3,00,000 as unexplained capital contribution. The assessee explained that the capital was deposited through account payee cheques from a saving bank account. The ld. CIT(A) found the explanation satisfactory as the amounts were verifiable from bank account copies. The Tribunal noted that the assessee had provided relevant documents to the AO at both assessment and appellate stages. Referring to legal precedents, the Tribunal held that Rule 46A was not violated as the AO had the opportunity to consider the evidence. The appeal of the Revenue was dismissed based on the established facts and legal principles. Issue 2: Addition of unexplained loan under section 68 of IT Act The AO added Rs. 18,00,000 as unexplained loan from M/s. Abhinav Vinimay (P) Ltd. The assessee provided various documents including payment slips, bank account extracts, and fresh confirmation from the creditor. The ld. CIT(A) found that the creditor's identity and creditworthiness were not disputed by the AO. The Tribunal observed that the AO's notice u/s. 133(6) was sent to an incorrect address, and the information sought was inaccurate. As the assessee had submitted all necessary details, the Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s decision to delete the addition. The Tribunal concluded that the assessee had discharged the burden of proving the genuineness of the loan, and no violation of Rule 46A was found. The appeal of the Revenue was dismissed based on the facts and legal analysis presented. In conclusion, the Tribunal upheld the decisions of the ld. CIT(A) in both issues, dismissing the departmental appeal.
