I think the AO issued notices to Suppliers of assessee and not to purchasers- there seems a mistake in your query. Besides confirmation of purcahses from suppliers you need to establish that goods were received, accounted for and used/ sold or held as closing stock to establish that the purchases are genuine. In case of manufacturing activity consumption of material should be normal and not excessive. If excessive consumption is shown or excessive wastage is shown, without valid reason, then there can be doubt of bogus purchases.

It is matter of evidence and proof. Why the letters return back as Mark not found or address not correct. One case or two case may be exceptional but each case! unbelievable. It means, there is something which is doubtful. All depend upon that how you are able to prove the genuineness and reasons to prove your transactions.
