(A) the assessee as well as Revenue had filed cross appeals and Hon'ble Tribunal vide order dated 17.02.2016 disposed off the appeals by holding as under: "22. We have heard the rival parties and have gone through the material placed on record. We find that the assessee has taken a jurisdictional issue in the AY 2008-09 by way of an additional ground, which during the course of hearing before us, was revised and which reads as under: "That the assessment having been reopened u/s 148 on the basis of cash deposit of ₹ 5,45,980/- in the bank account with Standard Chartered Bank, Jalandhar in the name of the assessee but no addition having been made for the same by the AO Thus, no income as a matter of fact having escaped assessment, it was not open to the AO to independently asses some other income, which is not part of the reason recorded u/s 148 by the A.O." 23. The reasons recorded for reopening of the case for the AY 2008-09 are placed at PB 108, which for the sake of completeness are reproduced below: "During the course of assessment proceedings in the case of the assessee for the assessment year 2009-10, an AIR information of cash deposits of ₹ 16,52,000/ .....

Addition amounting to ₹ 2,55,92,341/- was made primarily on the basis of AIR information w.r.t cash deposits in the saving bank account. From the bank statement obtained from the bank of the same account, it is seen that cash amounting to ₹ 5,45,980/- has been deposited during financial year 2007-08 relevant to assessment year 2008-09 also. Since, it has already been admitted by the assessee that the source of deposits in this bank account is actually unaccounted sale proceeds of his business of trading in books/stationary items. Notice u/s 147/148 of the Income Tax Act,1961 dated 08.02.2012 was issued after recording the reasons for the same. The said notice stands duly served upon assessee on 09.02.2012." From the above findings, we note that he did mention the fact of deposit of cash amounting to ₹ 5,45,980/- in the AY 2008-09 and he has held that since the assessee had already admitted that the source of deposit in the bank account is unaccounted sale proceeds, therefore, he made the trading addition ignoring cash deposit as .....

Therefore, the AO and the ld. CIT(A) has rightly not considered the figure of sales for arriving at the cost of goods sold. However, the authorities below have rightly estimated the calculation of cost of goods sold on the basis of figures provided by the assessee in his trading account. The authorities below completely verified the purchases after calling information u/s 133(6) from the various suppliers of the assessee and from where the assessee was getting discount also. By completing the assessment, the AO did not allow benefit of free distribution of stationery and books which the assessee had claimed and which was one of the reasons for low gross profit ratio. Before the ld. CIT(A) complete details alongwith confirmations from Principals of various Schools alongwith details of books distributed free of cost were filed which were forwarded to the AO also. The ld. CIT(A) after obtaining the remand report from the AO had found the claim of the assessee as genuine and therefore, he rightly allowed the relief to .....

In view of the above, these two arguments of the ld. counsel are rejected and the formula adopted by the ld. CIT(A) is upheld subject to application of gross profit rate worked out by him. The suppression of gross profit in various years by applying gross profit ratio based upon gross purchases and gross discount for three years is worked out as under: Asst.
