From the above it is clear that the books result of the assessee are not correct and hence rejected as per the provisions of section 145(3) of the IT Act 1961. The estimated GP rate is taken at 20% by considering the per meter GP rate mention in the similar industry like 'The Ruby Mills Ltd. (PAN AAACT0220G) where GP is shown by 33% for A. Y. 07-08 on turnover of 108,68,01,077/-. In view of the above. GP is estimated @ 20%.

In the above working the A.O. adopted average rate of Rs. 53.89 of purchases of grey on the basis of total meters of grey purchased during the year divided by amount of purchase. On the basis of this average rate of Rs. 53.89 of purchases during the year of grey cloth, the A.O. has workout the value of closing stock of grey at Rs. 48,39,840/-. However, the appellant has explained that the purchase of grey from the market during the year had already been consumed in manufacturing of finished cloth and what was remained in the closing stock was grey manufactured by the appellant from yarn and not the readymade purchased from the market. In the manufacturing of grey, the cost of weaving of yarn and other manufacturing cost have also been included. The appellant's cost of manufactured grey cloth was less than the cost of which the finished grey cloth was purchased from the market. The A.O. has adopted average rate of Rs. 53.09 per meter of grey whereas the appellant's cost of manufacturing of grey was only at the average rate of Rs. 48.03. This difference h .....

Considering the entirety of facts and circumstances, the working made by A. O. could not have conclusively proved any under statement of yarn, grey and finished products of the appellant. Apart from the using various figures for reaching to a conclusion, the A.O. has not noticed any defect in appellant's books of account. Therefore, there was no base with the AO for rejecting appellant's books of accounts. It is' also worth noting that appellant's manufacturing activity/process was subjected to Excise Department supervision wherein the inputs and output/ production details were required to be recorded in RG-1 register on daily basis. However, no discrepancy appears to have been noticed by Excise Department. In the facts & circumstances, the working made by A.O. was not proper and consequently different conclusion made on that basis were also not proper. The AO has worked out under valuation of Rs. 90,60,853/- in closing stock of yarn, gray and finished product which was included in addition of gross profit. .....

The assessee has shown the Gross Profit @ 5.93%. The Assessing Officer worked out the Gross Profit from the average per meter rate @ 24.33% for finished goods and @ 8.7% for grey. On seeing the book result and closing stock assessed, the Assessing Officer arrived at this conclusion that the book result is not correct therefore estimated Gross Profit rate should be @ 20% by considering rate of similar industry "The Ruby Mills Ltd.' wherein Gross Profit has been shown @ 33% for A.Y. 2007-08 on turnover of Rs. 108,68,01,077/-. Accordingly, the Assessing Officer assessed the value of cloths. When the matter came before the First Appellate Authority then the First Appellate Authority arrived at this conclusion that the Assessing Officer compared the Gross Profit rate with the 'Ruby Mills Ltd.' which was manufacturing of the ladies dress material whereas the appellant was in manufacturing of suiting and shirting material. Learned CIT(A) also held that both the cases are not comparable. Therefore, the learned CIT(A) has deleted the said contentions. Even before us nothing was argued .....
