A copy of dissolution deed of the assessee firm was sent to the Assessing Officer but no other information was submitted by the appellant. It is ascertained during appeal hearing that the receipts were received by Sh. Ashish Mathur in his Individual capacity in his individual PAN and also through the PAN of the firm. Under such, circumstances, it is not possible to believe that the firm is dissolved.

Also, all the returns of income filed in my capacity as proprietor of M/s Mathur Ugam and Associates have been duly assessed by the Income Tax Department. 6.

Since the same could not be submitted to the AO, I submitted the same before Hon'ble CIT(A). However, the Hon'ble CIT(A) has totally ignored the reconciliation statement submitted by me without any reason or basis. 10. As such, a grave injustice has been meted out to me in so far as I have paid full tax due on entire income of myself as well as the erstwhile firm, but I have been denied the refund of Rs. 3,63,100/- claimed by me in my ITR. To further aggravate the matters, the Hon'ble CIT (A) has confirmed further liability on me by ignoring the reconciliation statement submitted by me and wrongly applying the provisions of Sect .....
