AO, the entire cash sales reflected in the loose sheets pertain to the assessee when there are corresponding sales which has been accounted in the books of M/s. Samaira Enterprises. If that premise of the AO is to be accepted then sale of M/s. Samaira Enterprises would be nil which cannot be the case, because this entity has shown sales and is assessed to tax since past. Thus, based on these documents and the ld. CIT (A) has given his elaborate finding for his conclusion and given direction to the ld. AO wherein, he has directed the ld. AO to verify and cross check, whether the sales adopted by him from the loose sheets appears in the cash book / bank book / sales of M/s. Samaira Enterprises or not and similar exercise to be undertaken with respect to expenses of the outgoing in the loose sheets seized and impounded from the search proceedings. We do not find any reason to tinker with such a direction which is based on the facts and material on record. Accordingly, order of the ld.

Unaccounted purchase - unexplained expenditure u/s.69C - CIT(A) deleted addition - HELD THAT:- Appellant has brought on record sufficient documentary evidences to justify its claim of genuineness of purchase of Spice Compound, which have not been controverted by the AO during assessment proceedings. No adverse view has been taken by the AO with respect to veracity of various documentary evidences or the claim made. AO has solely relied on the statements of two employees, which have later been clarified by the deponents Considering these facts, the addition as unexplained expenditure u/s.69C is correctly deleted. Addition u/s.68 - statement recorded during the search and survey - HELD THAT:- Once ld. AO is being directed to verify the assessee records and ascertain the correct figure of sales made to M/s. Samaira Enterprises and if there is any discrepancy, then remedial action has to be taken in the case of M/s. Samaira Enterprises as the same would constitute corresponding purchases in its hand. It is only with the direction ld. CIT(A) has directed to delete in the hands of the assessee. We do not find any infirmity in such direction because all these transactions have been stated to be recorded in the books of accounts of M/s. Samaira Enterprises. Addition u/s.69C - Purchase invoices demonstrating that the two invoices represent purchase of Nirmali Seeds of export quantity and balance invoices showing purchase of Tukda Nirmali Seeds at a lower price - CIT(A) deleted addition - HELD THAT:- Once it has been found that there is no evidence of cash payments against the purchase of nirmali seeds from the said party, then addition made by the ld. AO itself does not have any basis, accordingly, the ld. CIT(A) has rightly deleted the said addition.
