2012 (11) TMI 473 - ITAT, AHMEDABADGross profit on sale of stock - additional income deleted by CIT(A) - Held that:- The assessee had transferred the stock of old stock of cloth at book value to its sister concern which according to the A.O. should have been transferred at cost plus profit. The assessee’s submission is that the stock was old and non-moveable stock which it had been carrying forward from earlier years has not been disputed by the Revenue by bringing any material to the contrary on record. Further, it is a settled law that Revenue cannot claim to put itself in the armchair of the businessman and assume the role to decide as to how to run the business. A businessman cannot be compelled to maximise its profits. CIT (A) has also given a finding that the case of the Revenue is that it is of a sale to sister concern at a price which is less than its market value. The Revenue has not brought any specific material on record to show a particular sale price. No deeming provision of the nature of section 40A(2)(b) for sales transaction. The Revenue has also not been able to controvert the findings of the CIT (A) or rebut his observations. Thus no reason to interfere in the order of CIT (A) - in favour of assessee.
