This appeal by assessee has been directed against the order of the Ld.

On perusal of the balance-sheet of the lender company, it was noticed that it did not have adequate means to advance such huge loan to the assessee. The creditor has shown NIL taxable income in the return of income. In the P L A/c it has shown sales and other receipts of ₹ 4,67,521/-. The lender has not supplied copy of its bank account though it was specifically asked for in the notice under section 133(6) of the I.T. Act. The A.O, therefore, doubted the creditworthiness of the lender company and asked the assessee to produce the lender company for examination. However, the assessee did not produce the lender company before A.O. The A.O, therefore, held th .....

Copy of the order is placed on record. 7.1. Learned Counsel for the Assessee submitted that search was conducted on 22nd March, 2010 and for assessment year under appeal i.e., 2009-2010 assessee filed return of income on 31.07.2009. Initially he has submitted that the issue is covered by earlier order of the Tribunal dated 21.11.2017 because no incriminating material was found during the course of search against the assess .....

CIT(A) accepted the request of the assessee to produce the creditor at the appellate stage, which, assessee failed to do so. Therefore, no further chance may be given to the assessee and appeal of the assessee may be dismissed. 12. We have considered the rival submissions. It is an admitted fact that during the course of search no incriminating material was found to prove that assessee received any bogus credit of the impugned amount. The assessee claimed it to be a genuine loan and filed confirmation of the loan before A.O. which is supported by copy of the ITR of the lender company and their audit report containing P L A/c and balance-sheet. The A.O. sought information directly from the le .....

No substantial question of law arose. 13.2. Therefore, in the light of above decisions, the findings of the A.O. may not be appropriate to reject the explanation of assessee particularly when the lender has confirmed the transaction with the assessee directly to the A.O. in response to the notice under section 133(6) of the I.T. Act. These facts, therefore, shows that one more opportunity could be given to the assessee to produce the creditor befo ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
