..... satisfied about the correctness or completeness of the accounts of the assessee or that the method of accounting has not been regularly followed by the assessee, CIT(A) was not justified in rejecting the books of accounts and in estimating the profit. This being so, and keeping in view that the outstanding payment made by the assessee during April, 2006 to October, 2006 was not disbelieved by the A.O., addition sustained by CIT(A) is not sustainable in law and accordingly the same is deleted.

The assessee submitted that the labourers were migrating from place to place and they were staying in temporary sheds or tent till the completion of work and subsequently they moved to other site and, therefore, it is not possible to file confirmation. It was contended that the entire payment was made from April 2006 to October 2006 by means of cheque and cash. The A.O. did not accept the reply on the ground that if the assessee had made the payment after six months, then it is possible for the assessee to file confirmation but the same was not filed.

We find that the facts are not in dispute inasmuch as it is also not in dispute that the assessee has not filed any confirmation letter from Mahesh Kumar either before the A.O. or before the ld. CIT(A). However, at this stage he has filed the same along with the PAN with a request to admit the same as an additional evidence.
