March 6, 2012 2157 Views 0 comment Print

The assessee claimed that the agricultural income of the members of his family was around Rs.8 lacs per annum .But the AO found that only an amount of Rs. 3,37,152/-was reflected in the financial year 2005- 06 and Rs. 3,50,454/- in the Financial Year 2006- 07 and no basis or evidence was produced in support of agricultural income of Rs. 8 lacs. In these circumstances ,especially when admittedly no evidence was filed by the assessee to establish nexus between sale of agricultural produce and introduction of cash in capital account, the ld. CIT(A) upheld the findings of the AO. The situation remains the same even before us. The ld. AR did not refer us to any material, evidencing sale of agricultural produce . In the absence of any basis, we are not inclined to interfere.
