It is also not in dispute that vide sale deed dated 26.09.2007, the same land measuring 11 canals 19 marlas stood re-transferred to Darshan Singh by the assessee society. It is also not in dispute that the addition of Rs. 7,50,000/- made by the AO u/s 69B has been accepted by the assessee society having not been appealed against. 6. Further, on the other hand, the ld.
