Accordingly, notice u/s 148 of the Act dated 30.03.2021 was issued and served on the assessee. In response to the said notice, the assessee has not filed its return of income. The case was selected for scrutiny. During the course of assessment proceedings, the Assessing Officer called upon the assessee to file necessary evidences and also explain why assessment should not be completed by considering the turnover of Rs. 58,00,87,847/-. Since the assessee has not filed any return, the Assessing Officer has completed best judgment u/s 144 r.w.s. 147 of the I.T. Act, 1961 on 30.03.2022 and determined the total income at Rs. 4,64,07,030/- by estimating 8% profit on total contract receipts of Rs. 58,00,87,847/-. .....

Although they have booked various payments, but the same have been subsequently rectified by filing a corrected statement which can be noticed from Form 26AS, where the number of entries has been reversed. Further, although the appellant in reply to notice u/s 148 claims that it has received gross receipt of Rs. 58,00,87,847/-, but the said amount includes payment made to other entities and the assessee without noticing the revised Form 26AS has considered total payment received from main contractor including payment received by the other group entities and stated that it has received total contract receipt of Rs. 58,00,87,847/-.

CIT (A) accepted the contention of the assessee for estimating 5% profit on gross contract receipts, however, directed the Assessing Officer to verify the claim of the assessee of gross contract receipt of Rs. 22,31,24,260/- based on Form 26AS filed for the relevant A.Y and any other relevant documents. It is the contention of the assessee that the turnover of the appellant firm for the impugned A.Y under consideration is only Rs. 22,31,24,260/- which is evident from the updated form 26AS filed for the relevant A.Y. We have gone through Form 26AS filed by the appellant for the A.Y 2016-17 and as per said form 26AS, the gross contract receipt of the appellant for the year under consideration is only at Rs. 22,31,24,260/- and TDS deposit of .....

Although the learned CIT (A) has in principle agreed with the contention of the assessee in respect of rate of profit and turnover, but erred in directing the Assessing Officer to verify the claim of the assessee in light of Form 26AS and any other relevant documents. In our considered view what is the other relevant documents is not explained by the learned CIT (A). In absence of any evidences or other relevant documents which supports the contention of the Assessing Officer that the appellant has received gross contract receipt of Rs. 58,00,87,847/- , in our considered view the arguments of the assessee that it has received gross contract receipt of Rs. 22,31,24,260/- needs to be accepted.
