The AR has submitted that additional income of Rs. 160 Lacs surrendered during search has been duly reflected in the books of account; Rs. 110 Lacs as additional income on account of difference in stocks, Rs. 35 Lacs undisclosed/unrealized sales/debtors and Rs. 15 Lacs under the head unexplained documents & expenses. The AR submitted that from the above it can be seen that surrender of Rs. 145 Lacs towards difference in stocks and undisclosed/unrealized sales/debtors is more than the addition of Rs. 40,55,661/- made by the AO towards fall in GP rate.
