..... letter together, the sum and substance of the entire conversation would be that the assessee had offered the said amount of Rs. 70 lacs as his additional professional income. There is no case of the Department that the assessee has any other source of income. AO during the assessment proceedings, had made adequate enquiries in this respect and accepted the explanation offered by the assessee. We, therefore, do not find any justification on the part of PCIT in holding the assessment order as erroneous and prejudicial to the interests of the Revenue. The exercise of revisionary jurisdiction u/s 263 of the Act, in this case is held to be not justified and therefore, the revision order passed u/s 263 of the Act is hereby quashed. Appeal of .....

The ld. DR, on the other hand has relied upon the statement recorded of the assessee during the survey action to submit that the assessee during his statement, though offered the aforesaid amount of Rs. 70 lacs for taxation, however, the assessee during the course of statement, had stated that at that time, he was unable to explain the source of the cash found of Rs. 9,30,000/- and further, the unaccounted entries of the amount of Rs. 37,50,000/- and unaccounte .....

Rather, if we read both the statement as well as letter together, the sum and substance of the entire conversation would be that the assessee had offered the said amount of Rs. 70 lacs as his additional professional income. There is no case of the Department that the assessee has any other source of income.
