The Jain Brothers specifically stated that out of 16.5 crores, ₹ 8 crores were declared in the sale-deed and remaining amount of ₹ 8.5 crores was received in cash. Similarly, Smt. Veer Bala Agarwal, in her statement stated that total consideration was ₹ 2.25 crores, out of which ₹ 45 lacs were shown in the registered sale-deed and remaining amount of ₹ 1.80 crores was received in cash from Sanjeev Agarwal.

Veer Bala Agarwal is not correct. Besides that from the order sheet dated 22.06.2007, it can be seen that the assessee Shri Agarwal wanted to examine/cross examine the seller.
