Undisclosed sales – Only profit can be added when purchases are recorded

Murlidhar Deendayal Vs ITO (ITAT Jaipur)

In respect of undisclosed sales only profit can be added when purchases are recorded but sales is undisclosed. For this purpose, reliance is placed on the following judicial pronouncements:

(i) CIT v/s President Industries (2000) 158 CTR 372 (Guj)

(ii) Bansal Rice Mills v/s ITO (2001)72 TTJ 1 (Chd) (TM).

In this regard, I also observe that the impugned addition made and confirm is solely based on the statement of the assessee without any corroborative evidence.
