Jeweler's cash sales spike during festive season justified post-demonetization.

Case Laws     Income Tax

November 14, 2024

The assessee, engaged in trading gold, silver, and diamond jewelry, witnessed a substantial increase in cash sales during October and the first week of November 2016 due to Dussehra and Diwali festivals. After demonetization on November 8, 2016, jewelers opened shutters and made substantial sales from 8:30 PM to 12:00 AM. The assessee filed purchase and sale registers, stock summary, returns, and explained the cash deposit, discharging the onus of proving genuineness. The Appellate Tribunal observed that the increase in cash sales was due to festival occasions, and people chose to purchase jewelry with cash. Consequently, the addition u/s 69A was unjustified, and the decision favored the assessee.
