The AO has held that as per the balance-sheet drawn as on 31.03.2008, the assessee had shown his share of investment in the said property at Rs.21 lacs.

However, the AO was not convinced and taxed an amount of Rs.5 lacs as deemed dividend by invoking the provisions of section 2(22)(e) of IT Act. 9. The ld.CIT(A) has decided the issue in assessee s favour by observing as under:- Further, advance is given by Kalpsutra Chemicals Pvt.Ltd. to MAC Industry is in nature of trade deposit and in the ordinary course of business.

Having heard the parties, we have noted that undisputedly it was a trade transaction as evident from the copy of accounts placed on record.
