Not doing so, the addition for the name sake cannot be justified." 2. The Tribunal based on the oral and documentary evidence has come to the conclusion that the addition of the amount of the income of the assessee was illegal and upheld the order of the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) with elaborate discussion with reference to the evidence. 3.
