..... and introduced as capital and therefore, cannot be treated as unexplained credit under Section 68 of the Act. However, till date no opportunity has been provided by the Assessing Officer for the necessary verification of this amount. 9. Ld. Counsel further submitted that the order under Section 271(1)(c) of ld.
