Therefore, we are of the considered opinion that those debit entries cannot be ignored altogether. Since the Ld.CIT(A) after considering the totality of the facts of the case has sustained addition of ₹ 15,30,602/- which is the peak credit in the bank account as on 29-12-2009, therefore, we do not find any infirmity in the order of CIT(A) - ITA No.718/PN/2014 - - - Dated:- 30-6-2016 - SHRI R .....

..... account amounting to ₹ 48,39,641/-. The above amount was determined by disallowing an amount of ₹ 2,22,717/- being 5% of the purchases over and above the net profit of ₹ 2,99,273/- determined by the assessee on account of such credit entries. Since in the impugned assessment year such profit works out to ₹ 6,03,973/- the same should have been accepted by the AO by making the disallowance of 5% of the purchases, i.e. ₹ 3,38,615/- and thereby making a net addition of ₹ 9,42,588/-.

Therefore, the addition on account of unexplained entries in the bank account of the appellant should have been made for this amount. Therefore, the addition on account of unexplained entries in the appellant's bank account is restricted to .....
