In addition, the CIT(A) enhanced the assessment in respect of personal drawings by stating that the assessee has shown a meager drawing of Rs. 24,000 per annum which is quite low compared to his status and income declared by the assessee for the relevant assessment year. Therefore, considering the status of the assessee and also the fact that he is residing in a posh area in the costliest city of Mumbai directed the AO to estimate household expenses at Rs. 1,50,000 per month and accordingly made additions of Rsw.18 lakhs u/s 69C of the I.T.

We do not find any merits in the arguments of the assessee for the reason that when an assessee is having a total income of Rs. 1,30,69,630 as income, an expdenditure of Rs. 24,000 per annum for his household expenses cannot be relied upon. As rightly observed by the CIT(A), the assessee is residing in posh are of Mumbai City for which Rs. 2,000 pm is not at all sufficient to manage his household expenses. At the same time, the estimate made by the Ld.CIT(A) is also on higher side.
