..... ficer made the addition on the grounds that the assets from these advances were acquired by Shri I. Mallapa Raju, i.e., the assessee, in his name. The Assessing Officer further observed that the assessee had filed a NIL return, and stating that the said advances purported to be taken by him were not commensurate with the returned income, the Assessing Officer went on to treat the entire amount of ₹ 7,57,98,800/- as income in the hands of the assessee. Thus, it is seen that there is no dispute on the fact that the amounts in question were advanced to the assessee by Shri B. Suryanarayana Raju, and this fact is not disputed by the Assessing Officer also. The A.O. has simply made the addition on the ground that the investments are made b .....

..... t the Assessing Officer has simply brushed aside the same by stating that the acceptability of bank statements without due Audit/reflection of same in statement of affairs and its genuineness as accounted transactions stands unreconcilable on merits. The statements provided are related to Axis Bank and the bank account mentioned in the return of income is noticed as HDFC bank in the case of Sri B. Suryanarayana Raju .

It can be seen from the remand report reproduced above in Para 6.7 above that the Assessing Officer has rejected this contention on the grounds that the assessee's contention on this analogy is apparently not reconcilable and same is not acceptable not to treat as unexplained investment of assessee of AY 2008-09 as it is appearing as opening asset in AY 2008-09 without being reflected in earlier year books. Further the assessee could not bring out this clear fact to treat the same as investment of AY 2007-08 during the pendency of assessment proceedings . This state .....
