The ld. CIT(A) had simply mentioned that this ground is general in nature and therefore, it is not been adjudicated separately and treated as dismissed. 2. That on the facts of the case and under the law, the ld. CIT(A) had erred in sustaining the addition of Rs.44,00,000/-, which was made by the ld. AO on the ground that there were contradictions in the explanation given by the assessee during the course of assessment proceedings and the explanation given by the assessee's wife -Mrs. Anju Jakhmola during the course of search & seizure operation carried out u/s 132.

Ltd. is also assessed to tax in this Circle and there is no evidence on record in support of claim of assessee. Hence, AO held that in these circumstances, the submission of Shri Harish Kumar that the said money belongs to the company cannot be believed and in view of this an addition of Rs.44,00,000/- is being added to the income of the assessee. 5. Upon assessee's appeal, ld. CIT (A) confirmed the addition as under:- "5.1 The undersigned has carefully gone through the assessment order, written submission filed as well as verbal argument of the ld. A.R.

However, no evidence could be submitted to substantiate her claim. Therefore, undersigned is of the opinion that the cash found and seized is nothing but undisclosed income of the appellant. Therefore, addition made by AO is confirmed and grounds of appeal are dismissed." 6. Against the above order, the assessee has come up in appeal before us. 7. We have heard the ld.

11. As regards the merits of the case, the addition has been made on the basis of seizure of cash amounting to Rs.44,22,000/- at the residence of the assessee and the assessee's submission is that the same belongs to company is totally self-serving statement de hors any cogent evidence. Hence, we do not find any infirmity in the well reasoned order of the Revenue authorities in this regard. Therefore, the ground raised by the assessee stands dismissed
12. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is dismissed.
