..... wing grounds: 1. The order of the learned CIT(A) is opposed to law and facts of the case. 2. The CIT(A) has erred in estimating the profit @ 4% on the unrecorded sales without any basis when the assessee had relied on Section 44AD. 3.

But in spite of this finding in para 6 of his order, the learned CIT(A) has held in para 7 of his order that the appeal of the assessee for A.Y. 2012-13 is partly allowed. In our considered opinion, after holding this in para 6 that the case of assessee squarely falls outside the purview of section 153A, learned CIT(A) should have held that the assessment order passed by the AO u/s. 153A is bad, in law and he should have allowed the appeal of the assessee instead of holding that the appeal is partly allowed. Therefore, we hold that the assessment order passed by the AO u/s. 153A is bad .....

For these and other grounds that may be urged upon the order of CIT(A) may be reversed and that assessment order to be restored. 6. The grounds are interrelated.

..... elied on by the AR regarding loose sheet, dairy unearthed during search/survey, the ratio laid down in the said cases are not applicable on the basis of facts and circumstances of the appellant's case. However, I fully agree with the fact that, sales and purchases should be net off and further also give effect to other direct and indirect expenses. Turnover includes purchase cost, labour cost and gross profit. Only gross profit can be termed as income of the appellant.

As per para 5.2.9 of his order in this year, although learned CIT(A) has noted that in the business of Arecanut, the books of accounts disclose profit @ 2-3% but while computing income of unaccounted turnover taxes and levies etc. are evaded and therefore the profit will be higher and he directed the AO to assess income @ 4% of undisclosed turnover as against 12 % rate adopted by the AO. In the written submissions dated 11.06.2020 filed by the learned AR of the assessee for A.Y. 2015-16, this is one of the submissions that the coded words and figures found noted in impounded materials were disclosed in audited books of accounts and .....
