However no reference in regard to the information sought and received by the AO is found in the assessment order.

Thus where there is a discrepancy on facts qua the impugned order and the AO and the reasons for the drop in share price have not been addressed by the CIT(A) it would be appropriate to restore the issue back to the file of the CIT(A) with the direction to first address the facts and then consider the applicability of the judgements which are relied to pass a speaking order - appeal of the department is allowed for statistical purposes. - I.T.A .No.-5157/Del .....

Considering the submissions, the CIT came to the following conclusions :- "6. I have gone through the facts of the case, assessment order, grounds of appeal, written submissions, case laws referred by the appellant and carefully considered them. In the present case, the Assessing Officer has not brought out any material evidence on record to prove that the amount actually paid for purchase of shares of M/s Shri Govind Hotels Health Resorts Pvt.
