The AO further held that it cannot be believed that such a huge amount of Rs.6,01,705/- was kept in cash and at the same time she had deposited Rs.5,00,000/- in cash into her bank account and also gave Rs.6,00,000/- as gift to her husband.

..... property in the immediately preceding year of Rs.42,50,000/- for which he had obtained a loan of Rs.35,00,000/- from ICICI Bank which means he along with his wife had invested an amount of Rs.7,50,000/- in this property in the immediately preceding year from his own source and from his wife's sources.
