2012 (7) TMI 983 - HC - Income TaxAddition on account of 'On-Money' - Held that:- The material seized in form of loose paper was qua one flat No. A/204 only in respect of which taking of 'on-money' could be alleged. It was on the basis of such loose papers, the addition on On-money account was sought to be made. That material could not have been used for the subsequent years for making addition on the same count. The addition in the Assessment Year 2004-05 was not sustained by the Tribunal in the appeal before it on the ground that the Assessing Officer ought to have confined himself in respect of sale transaction of one particular flat and he could not have on that basis calculated the addition for all flats. Accordingly, in respect of previous Assessment Year 2004-05, it was held by the Tribunal that the addition for On-money, made in the said year was not proper inasmuch as such addition could have been made only in respect of the flat in respect of which the evidence of On-money was found at the time of search. The said decision dated 31.03.2011 of ITAT, Ahmedabad was relied on, on behalf of the assessee. Even as for the year 2004-05 also, the addition on account of Onmoney was held to be on the basis of guess work and extrapolation, again in the next yar 2005-06 being year under consideration the addition of ₹ 1,52,53,128/- was made repeating the same story. When in respect of previous Assessment Year 2004-05 also the Tribunal had dismissed the Department’s appeal on the ground that the addition in that year also was based on extrapolation, it emerged beyond pale of doubt that for the addition made for the year 2005-06 there was no evidence whatsoever and the same was presumptive in nature.
