Thereafter, he deleted this addition by observing that since no claim of bogus expenditure has been found by the A.O., addition is not justified. We do not find any infirmity in the order of learned CIT (A) on this issue in the facts of the present case because the activities of the assessee are charitable and considering the nature and volume of expenses.
