Therefore, we are of the considered view that, when the appellant is able to file necessary evidences including Form 26AS to justify the turnover reported for the year under consideration, then the AO is incorrect in adopting the turnover of Rs. 58,00,87,847/- only on the basis of letter filed by the assessee. Although the 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 AO to verify the claim of the assessee .....

..... sary 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/-. 4. Being aggrieved by the assessment order, the assessee preferred an appeal before the learned CIT (A).

..... nover 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 Rs. 44,62,485/-.

Although the appellant in their letter dated 23.11.2021 claimed t .....
