Issue 1: Sustained trading addition of Rs. 24,000
The appellant, a practicing doctor and proprietor of a nursing home, contested a trading addition of Rs. 24,000 following a survey. The CIT(A) had reduced the addition from Rs. 35,880. The Tribunal confirmed the CIT(A)'s decision based on a previous order, dismissing the appeal.

Issue 2: Confirmation of an addition of Rs. 75,148 in the laboratory receipts accounts
An addition of Rs. 75,148 was made in the laboratory receipts accounts due to discrepancies in actual receipts. The appellant claimed that receipts belonged to a technician working for other doctors. The Tribunal accepted the technician's affidavit as truthful, deleting the addition, emphasizing the need for rebutting evidence.

Issue 3: Partly sustained addition on alleged unexplained investment in house construction
The Tribunal directed the application of local PWD rates for valuing the property, disposing of the issue based on a previous decision regarding valuation methods.

Issue 4: Disallowance of Rs. 5,200 for personal use of telephone and electricity expenses
The CIT(A) had not provided detailed reasoning for disallowing Rs. 5,200. The Tribunal remanded the issue to the CIT(A) for a detailed order, emphasizing the necessity of hearing the assessee before making a decision.

In conclusion, the appeal was partly allowed, with decisions varying for each issue based on evidence, legal precedents, and valuation methods, emphasizing the importance of substantiated arguments and proper documentation in tax matters.
