Loss occurred to assessee as a result of its activity of trading in shares (a loss arising from the business of speculation) was not capable of being set off against the profits which it had earned against the business of futures and options since the latter did not constitute profits and gains of a speculative business.
Initiation of assessment proceedings under section 153C in case of other person, i.e., assessee without issuing proper satisfaction note by AO of the searched person in favour of AO having jurisdiction of such other person, the proceedings initiated u/s 153C was void-ab-initio.
Addition under section 68 on account of bogus capital gains from penny stocks was not justified as AO had not conducted any independent and separate enquiry to prove that the transactions carried out by the assessee were not genuine or that the documents were not authentic and assessee had successfully discharged the onus cast upon him by provisions of section 68.
Since no incriminating material was unearthed by AO during the course of search operation under section 132, therefore no addition could be made during the relevant assessment year under section 153A by reopening the assessment on the matter, which was examined earlier during original assessment.
