It is not in dispute that the aforesaid two amounts have been deposited by the two partners in their capital account. The partners are income tax payee.

They have paid the gift tax also. Assessment under the Gift Tax Act has also been made, though the assessments made were summary in nature. In the case of Anil Rice Mills (supra), this Court has held that the assessee can not be asked to prove the source of source or the origin of origin.
