..... a, Tirupathi. He, therefore, contended that the AO should not have treated the said deposit as unexplained. The AR of Assessee had filed a copy of the ways and means account before the CIT(A) and the CIT(A) noted that Assessee had sufficient funds from which he had deposited Rs. 5,00,000/- with Bank of India.

..... rresponding withdrawals. The genuineness of these transactions have been demonstrated by Assessee by way of documentary evidence placed in the paper book as above. Therefore, since the assessment was made based on the ways and means statement, we are of the opinion that the learned CIT(A) has rightly deleted the addition by giving a categorical finding that it is clear from the ways and means account that Assessee had sufficient funds to deposit the amounts in the Banks and, accordingly, we uphold the order of CIT(A) and dismiss the ground raised by Revenue in this regard. 6. In the result, appeal of Revenue in ITA No. 770/HY/2011 is dismissed. ITA No. 609/Hyd/2011 by the revenue for AY 2007-08 7. This appeal is preferred by Revenue a .....

..... s against the action of CIT(A) in sustaining the addition of Rs. 18,30,000/-, made by the AO as unexplained income on account of deposits made in the banks, as under: i) Rs. 1,00,000 on 15/03/2007 Bank of Baroda ii) Rs 1,30,000/- on 28/03/2007 Bank of Baroda iii) Rs. 6,00,000/- on 05/04/2006 Andhra Bank iv) Rs. 10,00,000/- on 01/08/2006 Andhra Bank 11.

..... but there are no transactions like Rs. 1,00,000 and Rs. 1,30,000 drawn from the appellant's bank account and deposited in Bank of Baroda, Tirupathi. It is seen that the appellant's account with Bank of Baroda is having sufficient balance but it is not known how the said amount has been appearing in the said account and there is no entry as such in ways and means account of the appellant indicating drawings and making deposit with bank. Therefore, in the absence of the same, I am inclined to confirm the addition made by the AO. Hence, this ground of appeal is dismissed. 13. As regards the deposits of Rs. 16,00,000/-, it was submitted that Assessee had drawn these amounts from his ways and means account and deposited the same in Andhra Bank .....
