Accordingly on merits of the issue we hold that the gain of ₹ 6,94,327/- on sale of 95000 shares of Talent Infoway Ltd. by the assessee in the year under consideration is to be assessed under the head long term capital gain and we therefore delete the finding of the authorities below that this income be assessed as undisclosed income alongwith the addition of ₹ 8,679/- under section 69C of the Act on account of alleged commission @1.25% thereon. - Decided in favour of assessee - ITA No. 5847/Mum/2014 - - - Dated:- 23-9-2016 - Shri Jason P. .....
