While scrutinizing the return of income, the Assessing Officer noticed that the assessee has received Rs. 3.68 crores from M/s Mahagun India Pvt Ltd [MIPL].

The said company MIPL has refunded the loans to the extent of Rs. 3.68 crores and closing debit balance was Rs. 2.61 crores. The said ledger account is self-explanatory and clearly shows that the loan was given by the assessee to MIPL and not vice versa. Since this ledger account was before the Assessing Officer who had examined the same before making the addition, we do not find it necessary to restore this issue to the file of the Assessing Officer for verification of the same facts. We, accordingly, confirm the finding of the CIT(A). Grounds Nos. 1 to 3 are .....

..... td, BHW Home Finance and Religare Finvest Ltd., the same were transferred to MIPL, thus clearly establishing the direct link/nexus between the borrowings and lending. On these facts, we do not find any reason for any disallowance on this count. We, accordingly, direct the Assessing Officer to delete the entire disallowance of Rs. 93,63,773/-. Accordingly, Ground Nos. 4 and 5 of the Revenue are dismissed and the solitary grievance raised by the assessee is allowed. 20. Ground No. 6 in Revenue's appeal relates to the deletion of addition of Rs. 1 lakh made by the Assessing Officer. 21.
