HC held that the Assessing Officer's disallowance of entire purchases as bogus was justified. The Tribunal erred by estimating only 3% of purchases as bogus, contradicting established legal precedents. The Assessee's lack of cooperation and failure to produce critical transactional documentation substantiated the revenue's claim. Relying on previous judicial decisions in similar cases, the HC reversed the appellate authorities' orders. The court determined that the non-production of essential documents undermined the Assessee's credibility. Consequently, the HC restored the original assessment order, answering questions of law in favor of the Revenue and against the Assessee.
