..... erial which AO has mentioned in the assessment order and Ld. CIT(A) has rightly upheld the same. He requested that on legal issue, the order of the Ld. CIT(A) may be upheld. 6. On the contrary, Ld. Counsel of the assessee stated that the reopening in the present case is illegal and the same may be quashed. He further submitted that the present case is squarely covered by the Hon ble High Court Decision dated 8.10.2015 passed in ITA No. 545/2015 in the case of Pr.

..... ducer is the main entry operator and the cash deposit slips and other instruments are tilled by him. The other persons (in whose name the A/c is opened) only signs the blank cheque book and hands. over the same to the main entry operator.

Keeping in view of the facts and circumstances of the present case and the case law applicable in the case of the assessee, we are of the considered view that the reopening in the case of the assessee for the asstt.
