..... 4. In view of the above, I hold that the action of the Assessing Officer of rejecting books of accounts is not justified on the facts of the case and legal pronouncement made from time to time.

On gross profit ratio it was held that, based on the comparative chart annexed to the appellate order, the excess payment is only to the tune of Rs. 10,02,125/- which deserves to be added u/s.40A(2) of the Act and hence the addition on account of estimating the gross profit rate is to be restricted to this amount of Rs 10,02,125/- 4.

The cross objection is on the sustenance of disallowance on account of interest payment , made by the Ld.Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals). The assessee during the course of appellate proceedings, agreed not to agitate the matter further, if the revenue does not file an appeal before the ITAT. As the revenue has filed its appeal, the assessee has taken up this issue. The submissions of the Assessee are that: a. The assessee has its own funds of Rs 340.41 lakhs and that the advance was made out of own funds. b. That cash credit amount of Rs 140.43laksh was avail .....
