Addition Under Section 69B Deleted: Printout Evidence Insufficient Without Corroboration for Alleged Cash Machinery Purchase

April 1, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

ITAT deleted additions under s.69B for alleged cash payment for old machinery purchase, finding the printout was not a "speaking document" that could sustain charges without corroborative evidence. The tribunal noted M/s Chetak Enterprises denied receiving cash, and the machinery's market value aligned with the valuation report. Similarly, additions under s.69C for alleged cash payments to suppliers were deleted as there was no admission of cash transactions from either the appellant or recipients, with evidence showing payments were made through banking channels. The ITAT criticized the AO for failing to gather corroborative evidence or allowing cross-examination of the alleged recipients, concluding there was no justification for sustaining either addition.
