Therefore, the ITAT ought to have considered the grounds of appeal filed by department or in the alternative the department should be allowed additional ground raised before the ITAT as the primary facts are same and available on records. 3. Ld.Sr.DR Mr.B.L.Yadav vehemently argued that although the ground of the Revenue has not specified the quantum which was disputed but factually the Revenue wanted to agitate the deletion of an addition of Rs.12,41,105/-.

According to Mr.Shah, it is very strange that the Revenue Department is now asking to allow additional ground to be raised although such a request was never made at the time of hearing and now the order has already been pronounced. He has referred the following para from the said petition of the Revenue:- It was mentioned in the miscellaneous Petition filed dtd: 4/5/2009 that in view of the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of NTPC u/s.CIT (229 ITR 383 .....

In view of above facts, we are of the opinion that the ground No.(1) raised by the Revenue does no arise out of the Order of CIT(Appeals) because the CIT(Appeals) having deleted the addition, the profit to the extent, as was declared by the assessee, stands assessed as business income. More so, the assessee is not in appeal on this point. 5.1.

The assessing officer further made an addition of Rs.3,43,456/- on account of undisclosed investment in construction. This figure was arrived at by deducting the cost of construction of Rs.2,57,378/- shown by the assessee from the cost of construction of Rs.6,00,834/- determined by the valuation officer. Thus it can be seen that the facts in the cae of Shri Kanaiyalal Hemrajani in the case of assessee s i.e. Shri Indrajit Hemrajani is different. In the case of the Kanaiyalal Hemrajani it was the case of estimation of sale price also unexplained investment in the construction of h .....
