In respect of these expenses, the ld counsel for the assessee has invited our attention to the following explanation furnished by the assessee in his letter dt. 3rd Sept., 1981 to the ITO in the penalty proceedings; ''(B) Regarding disallowable Rs. 2,248, Rs. 1,000, Rs. 500, Rs. 600, Rs. 300 out of motor cycle, car expenses, travelling expenses, telephone, misc, expenses and electric motor expenses respectively, I have to state as under; (i) The firm has only one car and three motor cycles.

As regards the ad hoc addition of Rs. 3,000 in the gross profit account, our attention is invited to the comparative position in the machinary spare parts accounts for the year under consideration compared to the three preceding years. It is pointed out that the book result disclosed for the year under consideration is in no way inferior to the results for the earlier years. In the circumstances, in our opinion, we see no reason why the ld ITO and the AAC should have considered it necessary to sustain an addition of Rs. 3,000. it is hereby vacated. 4. The next objection of the assessee is to the order of the AAC holding that the amount of ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... the assessment stage. In our opinion, merely because the assessee maintains books of account on mercantile basis in respect of rest of the accounts, this addition should not have been made, particularly, in view of the fact that the very receipt of the amount was of doubtful nature. So long as it is not the case of the ITO that some of the interest received from the customers have not been credited to the books of account, the ITO could not have made such an addition. 6. During the course of the appeal proceedings before the AAC, the AAC found that the ITO after considering the rough trade account and fair books of account added the difference of gross profit between rough and fair trading account which has not been shown by the assessee. .....

The said hawala debited is not the purchases but expenses incurred for repairing. There is no difference of purchases between the loose papers and regular account. The purchases have been inflated by Rs. 1,075 and made addition which is unwarranted and should be deleted. 2. As far as suppression of sale is concerned, the amount of two sales bills, which was, in fact, cancelled was taken into consideration, while preparing rough estimate which was subsequently corrected while preparing four trading accounts, i.e., (1) the electric motor and pu .....

(a) The difference of two pieces came out due to cancellation of two bills as paragraph No. 2 i.e., rough estimate there is sale of 113 pieces while in fair trading account it is 111. (b) In rough estimate the closing stock is 45 pieces while in regular (fair) account it is 47 pieces. The increasement of two pieces in closing stock is due to cancellation of two bills. In the assessment order of ITO, Rs. 1,430 is added to the total income of an account of suppressed sales due to suppressed sale of one piece (electric motor) which is not warranted. 6.
