No addition for unexplained cash deposit if Sale amount exceeds cash deposit in bank

March 24, 2021 3234 Views 0 comment Print

In my considered opinion, once the total turnover of the assessee is much more than the total cash deposit in the bank account (in this case sales is 227% of the cash deposit), no addition is called for on account of unexplained cash deposit in the bank account. The explanation of the assessee appears to be reasonable. Under these circumstances, I hold that the ld.CIT(A) is not justified in sustaining the addition of Rs. 3,67,000/-. I, therefore, set aside the order of the CIT(A) and direct the AO to delete the addition.
