Therefore, A.O was justified in treating the said deposit as also not having been satisfactorily explained. 3 & 4 Shri Vishwas Patidar & Shri Radhyshyam Patidar: Shri Vishwas Patidar & Shri Radhyshyam Patidar are son and father and are related to the appellant. As noted by the A.O. here also the loan is stated to be out of agricultural income however the agricultural land holding is not commensurate with cash deposit in the accounts which are again of ₹ 49000/- or below that amount just prior to the loan given to the appellant. Shri Vishwas has no separate land in his name. Total land in the family in name of grand mother uncle etc. is only 16 Bighas and the details of the bank acounts in name of uncle and his family have not been given. In view of the above it is held that the loan from the above two creditors are also not satisfactorily explained. 5.

CIT (1979) 117 ITR 316, respectively, contended, that section 68 of the Act can be invoked only, when, the books of account of the assessee show the cash entry and not otherwise. We are afraid, such a narrow and restricted interpretation of the provisions, contained in Section 68 was advanced by learned counsel for the appellant/assessee, cannot be accepted. If the liability shown in the said account which, is found to be bogus and in the absence of any plausible and reasonable explanation offered by the assessee, then, certainly, the amount can be added towards the income of assessee and brought to tax in the hands of the assessee. The reliance placed on the decisions, in our considered opinion, do not apply to the facts and circumstances of the case and are distinguishable." 8.4 In the instant case also as pointed out above the appellant has submitted the copies of balance sheet ledger accounts bank book cash book etc at the time of assessment and the receipt is duly reflected in these accounts and hence A.O. was j .....
