Having given a thoughtful consideration to the rival submissions and from a careful perusal of the orders of the authorities below, we find that the assessee has filed copies of Revenue record before the ld. CIT(A) and the ld. CIT(A) himself has accepted that the assessee owns agricultural land, but he has confirmed the disallowance on the ground that no evidence was filed with regard to sale of agricultural produce and the expenses incurred in agricultural operation.
