..... mises of the assessee by the concerned owners for display. Accordingly, he prayed that these additional evidences may kindly be admitted and examined. 4. We heard the ld. DR and perused the record. We notice that the assessee has been claiming that that the excess stock found during the course of search does not belong to it and the said contentions have been rejected by the tax authorities for want of documentary evidences.

The assessee has stated that one concern has stopped its business activities, even though its registered address is continued with the same premises.
