In the case of the assessee, there was no original assessment u/s 143(3) of the Act but the return filed by the assessee was processed u/s 143(1) of the Act. Subsequently, the AO received information as well as statement recorded by the Investigation Wing, Mumbai during search and seizure operation in case of Shri Rajendra Jain, Shri Sanjay Choudhary group and Shri Dharmichand Jain group of Mumbai on 03-10-2013.

At the outset, we note that though the AO has made the addition of 25% of alleged bogus purchases, however, the ld.
