Where assessee had furnished relevant evidences such as copies of bank statement, demat account, share purchase documents and share certificate., etc., to prove its bogus long-term capital gain on sale of shares and no adverse material had been brought on record by AO to disprove the claim of assessee, addition made under section 68 on account of unexplained credit could not be sustained.
Addition under section 68 made by AO of the entire share capital and premium received during the year on the basis of negative observation about availability of funds with share applicant was unjustified as the share applicant was the sister concern of assessee, from whom similar share application with premium were received in the earlier year and the balance sheet of the share applicant showed ample source of funds.
The issue under consideration is whether the Tribunal is correct in upholding the decision of CIT(A) for deleting the addition made under section 68 of the Act?
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.
Where assessee had duly substantiated that it had earned a profit from commodities transactions along with complete details supporting the same, AO was not justified in treating the commodity transactions a fictitious arrangement with its associate concerns and adding the income as an unexplained cash credit under Sec.68.
