Ultimately the addition sustained in this case only on the basis of estimation. Therefore, the AO is not able to establish in this case the assessee concealed income by furnishing inaccurate particulars. It is not a fit case to impose penalty u/s 271(1)(C) of the Act.

As stated earlier the assesses is making deposits continuously for few days and thereafter he, withdraws the entire amount either by way of cash or by demand draft/ cheque. Hence, instead of giving outright credit for the withdrawals, in our opinion, it would meet the ends of justice, if we estimate the income out of the said transactions treating the same as business transactions.

Accordingly we estimate the profit of 8% of the said deposits and the same works out to ₹ 5,02,175/-. Accordingly directed the AO to make an addition of ₹ 5,00,000/-. In our opinion it would meet the ends of the justice and we order accordingly. We find that in this case, the AO has given a credit to the extent of ₹ 77,43,204/- relating to the sales amount.
