The grounds raised by the Revenue at Sl.No.1, 11 and 12 being general in nature, no adjudication is called for thereon. 6. Disallowance towards payments for job works, salaries and wages (ground Nos.2 to 6): 6.1.1 In the course of assessment proceedings, the Assessing Officer observed that the assessee had debited an amount of Rs. 5,21,38,455/- towards job works, salaries and wages - comprising of Rs. 30,66,291/- towards job work charges and Rs. 4,90,72,164/- towards salaries and wages. According to the Assessing Officer, the assessee was not able to substantiate the claim of expenses with documentary evidence like Payroll register, PF and ESI payments, details of TDS, service contracts and sources of funds etc., and therefore disallowed 20% of the expenses claimed. Accordingly, the Assessing Officer disallowed an amount of Rs. 1,02,47,691/- being 20% of the total expenses claimed amounting to Rs. 5,21,38,455/-. 6.1.2 In response to the query raised regarding the source of funds .....
