CIT(A) that there was no drawing during the five days prior to the date of gift and mere cash withdrawal by the donor long back i.e. 120 days cannot make the act probable. Such reasonings by both the authorities below cannot convert the facts of genuineness and creditworthiness of the transactions. In such circumstances and facts of the case we are of the view that the assessee has explained the identity, creditworthiness and genuineness of the transactions and the AO was not justified in treating the same as income of the assessee. Accordingly the order of the ld. CIT(A) is reversed. - Decided in favour of assessee.

The Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) erred in upholding the order of the Income Tax Officer by not accepting the gift of ₹ 60,000 received from Father and making an addition of the said amount under section 69 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 as undisclosed. 4.

Under such circumstances and facts of the case AO is not justified in invoking the provision of section 145(3) of the Act by simply calculating the differences between the revised balance sheet and the balance sheet in the audited accounts attached with the return of income and adding the same to the income of assessee. Therefore under such circumstances of the case this action of the AO for rejecting the books of account only on account of computation difference between the revised balance sheet and the audited balance sheet is no basis for invoking the provision of section 145(3) of the Act. Accordingly the same action of the ld. ,CIT(A) is directed to be reversed. Thus ground No.1 of the assessee is allowed. 5.

Counsel of the assesee before us tried to explain the difference and the reconciliation and prayed to examine the differences between the revised balance sheet and audited balance sheet by us. Prima facie as appears from the order of ld. CIT(A) the assessee has stated to have reconciled the differences but the same has neither been examined by the AO in the right perspective nor by the ld. CIT(A). It will be in the interest of justice if it is set aside the matter to the file of AO, who will examine the issue in the right perspective being the differences between the revised balance sheet and the audited balance sheet and if the explanation is found satisfactory the addition may be deleted. The assessee may be afforded adequate opportunity of being heard. The assessee shall cooperate in the assessment proceedings and AO is directed to act accordingly. Thus ground no.4 of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. 10. As regards ground no.5 AO made addition of ₹ 1,64,233/- in respect of furniture and fixture for personal purposes.
