ITAT Agra held that additional evidence proving the land’s distance from municipal limits is crucial for reassessment under Section 56(2)(vii). The case was remanded to AO for de novo verification, allowing the assessee to file further supporting documents.
The Tribunal found that the AO failed to establish any bogus purchase or sale since the assessee never handled the goods and only received net surplus. Identical findings in earlier years compelled the ITAT to delete the same addition again. The takeaway is that established business patterns cannot be arbitrarily recharacterized as accommodation entries.
The Tribunal admitted additional evidence such as partnership deeds, royalty ledgers, and source-wise cash deposit mapping. Since AO never verified these materials, the addition under Section 69A could not be sustained. The issue was restored for proper factual examination.
