The Assessing officer did not accept the contention of the appellant that there was no necessity for raising any debit note or any other documents in respect of the transaction of crores of rupees, and therefore, in the absence of any evidence, the claim of the assessee was rejected. This order was confirmed by Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeals). 3.

The appellant on the other hand is not being in a position to establish or to give satisfactory reason in respect of unaccounted iron ore to the tune of 18869 M. T. The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal was justified in rejecting the application for bringing additional evidence on record and also dismissed the Income Tax Appeals No. 191 and 192 of 2011 for the year 2005-06 and 2006-07. 8.
