Admittedly, it is very unusual that a wealthy NRI is accepting the gift from his father and the brother. Generally, the practice is different in the society. As such the NRI make gift to the relatives. But we find that there is no prohibition for the NRI for accepting the gifts from the relatives. In the absence of any prohibition, no adverse inference can be drawn against the assessee based on the prevailing system in the society. It is also interesting to note that the assessee has furnished sufficient documentary evidence of his father and the brothe ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... LACKS JURISDICTION. 1.01 On the facts and circumstances of your appellant's case and in law, the Id. CIT (A) has erred in confirming action of Id AO of assuming jurisdiction while passing Assessment Order although fact of the matter is that appellant was Non Resident of India within meaning of section 6 of the Act for the year under consideration and hence, the jurisdiction does not lie with the Id AO who passed the Assessment Order. Further, the Hon'ble CIT (Appeals) also failed to appreciate the said fact without considering the factuality and materiality which were apparent from the evidences furnished before Hon'ble CIT (A).

Aggrieved assessee preferred an appeal to the learned CIT-A 6. The assessee before the learned CIT-A submitted that he has accepted gift of ₹ 6.44 lakhs and 5 lakhs from his father and the brother which was used for purchasing the residential property in Vadodara. According to the assessee, the father and the brother were engaged in the agricultural activity on the land held by them in their personal capacity as well as on the land of other parties. As per the assessee, the father and the brother were able to generate the annual agricultural income of ₹23 lakhs approximately.

In other words, the donors of the gift do not have sufficient resources and the capacity to gift the wealthy assessee. Likewise, there was contradiction in the gift deed submitted by the assessee. Thus the learned CIT-A confirmed the order of the AO. 10. Being aggrieved by the order of the learned CIT-A, the assessee is in appeal before us. 11. The learned AR before us filed a paper book running from pages 1 to 129 and contended that the father and the brother of the assessee were engaged in the activity of agricultural which can be verified from the 7/12 extract, profit and loss account of .....

But we find that there was no contrary evidence brought on record by the revenue suggesting that the amount of cash deposit is not out of the gift amount. In other words, the revenue has not brought anything on record in support of its contention that amount deposited by the assessee is not out of the cash gift. To our understanding, merely the difference in time between the cash deposited in the bank viz a viz cash received as gift cannot authorize the revenue authorities to draw inferences against the assessee until and unless some documentary evidence are brought on record contrary to the arguments of the learned AR for the assessee.
