ITAT Raipur remands bogus purchase disallowance for a rice miller, awaiting the High Court’s ruling. The case will be reconsidered de novo following legal principles once HC decides.
The court ruled that once purchases are found unproved, restricting additions to a profit percentage is incorrect. Full disallowance is required under Section 69C where genuineness is not established.
The ITAT held that the alleged bogus purchases could not stand when the assessee produced complete documentary evidence showing genuine procurement and consumption. With no contrary evidence from the AO, the 69C addition was removed.
The Tribunal held that purchases cannot be treated as bogus when books are accepted and payments are made through banking channels. The addition under section 69C was deleted due to lack of concrete evidence.
The Tribunal held that once purchases are proven bogus, the entire amount must be added back, rejecting the CIT(A)’s 8% profit estimation. The ruling confirms that unexplained expenditure cannot be allowed under section 69C.
Tribunal upheld 153C jurisdiction based on seized documents and statements, but rejected the AO’s full bogus-purchase addition, sustaining only a 10% profit estimation after book rejection under section 145(3).
The Court held that the assessee failed to prove ₹20.06 crore in purchases and restored the AO’s 100% addition. It ruled that partial estimation was unjustified and Section 69C required full disallowance.
Delhi ITAT upholds CIT(A) order, ruling that only profit embedded in alleged bogus purchases can be taxed, not the full purchase value.
The Court reviewed bogus purchases of Rs. 4.65 crore, confirming the purchases as unverifiable but reduced the income estimation from 12.5% to 8%. The appeal was partly allowed, providing relief to the assessee.
The Tribunal reinstated the entire disallowance after finding the purchases completely non-genuine. It held that estimation theory cannot apply where transactions are proven to be sham.
