From the perusal of the record, we find that the notice of hearing sent to the assessee at the address mentioned in Form no.36 has been returned unserved by the postal authorities with the remark 'not known/left', despite the fact that there is no change in the address of the assessee as mentioned in orders of lower authorities. Therefore, in view of the above, we proceed to dispose off the present appeal ex-parte, qua the assessee after hearing the learned Departmental Representative ("learned DR") and based on the material available on record. 3.

The appellant craves leave to add, alter, modify and delete all or any of the aforesaid grounds of appeals on or before the date of hearing." 4. We have considered the submissions of the learned DR and perused the material available on record. The brief facts of the case are that the assessee is a company and filed its return of income on 11/08/2012 declaring a total income of Rs. 1349. The return filed by the assessee was initially processed under section 143(1) of the Act.

Further the AO also found the assessee to be having very weak financials, which cannot lead to investment to an extent of Rs. 7,93,50,000 by any prudent businessman. Accordingly, the AO treated the assessee to be a shell company, which is used to launder money as reflected in the books of account. Further, as noted above, the assessee failed to substantiate the huge investment of Rs. 13,19,00,000 in M/s Parvesh Construction Ltd. by purchasing shares at a premium of Rs. 10,000 per share having a face value of Rs. 100 of a loss-making company.
