..... ouse was deposited in the specified asset, as stipulated u/s 54F of the Act. 6.4 Thus, the appellant has grossly failed to substantiate his claim for grant of deduction u/s 54F of the Act. The appellant has not filed any sort of document in support of his claim for investment in a residential house. The appellant has also failed to substantiate the transaction of purchase and sale of the shares without any documentary evidences. I, therefore, decline to interfere with the order of the AO.

In the case of Sumati Dayal 214 ITR 801, it was held that during the year 1970-71 (pertaining to the assessment year 1971-72) between April 6, 1970, and March 20, 1971, the appellant claims to have won in horse race a total amount of ₹ 3,11,831/- on 13 occasions out of which ten winnings were from jackpots and three were from treble events.
