The aggrieved assessee preferred an appeal before the CIT(A), which was allowed by passing impugned order and the CIT(A) held that the amount received from the clients for further deposits into their respective accounts does not form part of turnover of the assessee or her husband, as they only get commission income proportionate to the business collected by them and the CIT(A) deleted the addition made by the AO on protective basis.
