Inspite of issue of notices by registered post acknowledgement due fixing the date of hearing on 28.03.2016, the notices returned unserved with an endorsement that the notice was unclaimed. Similarly the notice issued fixing the date of hearing on 29.12.2016 was returned unserved with an endorsement that the Assessee is left. Therefore, since the Assessee is not appearing, we heard the Ld. DR and dispose of this appeal on merits. 3. The Ld. DR submits that the Assessing Officer while completing the assessment o .....

CIT (Appeals) considering the submissions of the Assessee and the evidences on record confirmed the assessment for the reason that the Assessee could not prove that the property did not belong to her but belonged to her husband.

It may be seen that the husband of the appellant Shri Naresh Khemani has also submitted a letter through A.R.. He has basically contended that the addition in the hand of wife should be deleted. However, the appellant has not been able to prove that she is not the substantial owner of the property. When a property is owned, it definitely attracts capital gain which has to be borne by the owner or co-owner in proportion to their respective shares, but such claim can only be entertained if the appellant discharges its onus that the property in question belongs to someone else by giving his/her Income Tax Return details, PAN NO. , Bank A/c.
