ITAT held third party's data and confession alone insufficient to make addition against assessee without corroborative evidence, given assessee's complete denial. Assessee should have been given opportunity to cross-examine builder who admitted receiving on-money. Addition of on-money paid unsustainable, decided in assessee's favor.
