March 6, 2024

Addition of contract receipts - bogus activity - Estimation of income - The AO had made an addition to the assessee's income, alleging discrepancies in the contract receipts and estimating the profit at 8%. However, upon careful consideration, the Tribunal found inconsistencies in the assessment. It questioned the basis for estimating profit at 8% when the commission ranged from 0.25% to 1%, and the discrepancy regarding the actual contract receipts. The Tribunal concluded that the addition lacked demonstrative evidence and was based on surmise and conjecture.
