2016 (2) TMI 742 - AT - Income TaxAddition u/s 68 - receipt of equity share capital , preference share capital and preference share application money - Held that:- We find that the assessee had given the complete details about the share applicants clearly establishing their identity , creditworthiness and genuineness of transaction proved beyond doubt and had duly discharged its onus in full. Nothing prevented the Learned AO to make enquiries from the assessing officers of the concerned share applicants for which every details were very much made available to him by the assessee. We find that the reliance placed by the Learned CITA on the decision of the Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of CIT vs Lovely Exports (P) Ltd reported in (2008 (1) TMI 575 - SUPREME COURT OF INDIA ) is very well founded, wherein, it has been very clearly held that the only obligation of the company receiving the share application money is to prove the existence of the shareholders and for which the assessee had discharged the onus of proving their existence and also the source of share application money received. - Decided against revenue
