Issues involved: Appeal against order of CIT(Appeals) for assessment year 2009-10. Whether CIT(A) order is bad in law. Deletion of addition of cash deposits under Section 69A.
Issue 1: CIT(A) Order Legality The Revenue appealed against the CIT(A) order dated 12.11.2012 for the assessment year 2009-10, questioning its legality. Issue 2: Deletion of Cash Deposits Addition The case involved the deletion of an addition of Rs. 30,15,089 on account of cash deposits made in the bank, held as unexplained investments, under Section 69A of the Income-tax Act. Facts and Decision: The assessee had salary and agricultural income, and the case came under scrutiny. Despite multiple notices, the assessee did not attend hearings. The Assessing Officer (A.O.) made the addition of Rs. 30,15,089 as unexplained income from cash deposits. The CIT(A) partly allowed the appeal by deleting the addition. The Revenue appealed against this deletion. Judgment: The ITAT upheld the CIT(A) decision, stating that the assessee provided sufficient evidence, including cash flow statements and explanations for cash deposits. The ITAT found the A.O.'s addition without considering the evidence to be unjustified. The ITAT referred to relevant case laws and concluded that the deletion of the addition was appropriate. The ITAT dismissed the Revenue's appeal, upholding the CIT(A) decision. Conclusion: The ITAT decision on the appeal against the CIT(A) order for the assessment year 2009-10 upheld the deletion of the addition of cash deposits under Section 69A, based on the evidence provided by the assessee and the lack of justification for the A.O.'s addition. The appeal filed by the Revenue was dismissed.
