..... remaining amount as revenue receipt for the reason that the assessee had claimed TDS of ₹ 1,16,100/- in computation of income. As per the AO the authorized representative of the assessee failed to explain as to why the company Vodafone deducted the tax at source on the entire payment if the part of it was towards security. On the other hand the Ld. CIT(A) affirmed the action of AO holding that the assessee has failed to reconcile the balance with the liability shown in the balance sheet to substantiate its plea.

Under these circumstances we are of the considered view th .....

Accordingly, we allowed the Ld. DR to advance arguments on behalf of the revenue. 6. Before us, the Ld. departmental representative (DR) relying on the order of the learned CIT(A) submitted that since the assessee had claimed TDS of ₹ 1,16,100/-the assessee was asked as to why the difference of ₹ 4,41,000/- should not be added to the total income and since the assessee could not explain the same, the learned CIT(A) has rightly upheld the addition made by the AO. 7.

..... at an amount of ₹ 3,00,104 under three different heads in the balance sheet as mentioned in para 8.2. Again after that the appellant discussed the amount of ₹ 4,41,000/ and the TDS amount of 10% on such amount and net figure is arrived at ₹ 3,96,000/-. Whereas an amount of ₹ 1, 16,000/ is directed as TDS on the total amount of ₹ 11,61,000/ . At that point the appellant says that an amount of ₹ 96,796/ is not in a position to explain.

So, in our considered view before making addition of the amount in question, AO should have verified the facts to establish that the entire amount was revenue receipt. Under these circumstances we are of the considered view that further verification of the facts by the AO in the light of the contention of the assessee is necessary. Hence, we se .....
