During the course of assessment proceedings, it was detected that the assessee had suppressed the value of closing stock.

For the first period up to August 15, 1981, suppression in the value of closing stock was worked out at Rs. 36,536 and for the remaining period up to March 31, 1982, at Rs. 1,01,970.

Although the stock at the second period as per the revised return was to the tune of Rs. 2,36,544 as against shown in the books of account originally by the assessee at Rs. 2,21,250 and it shows that, in fact, the valuation of closing stock varied due to the application of higher rate of G.
