In the interest of justice and equity, we are of the view that the matter needs to be considered afresh by the Assessing Officer. The Assessing Officer shall take into account the total sale consideration. The amounts the assessee had paid from his bank account and also from the loan account availed by the assessee. Unexplained investment - Held that:- The addition of ₹ 19,73,310 by the CIT(A) is an error in view of his findings in para 6.3(i) [page 9 of CIT(A)’s order]. The CIT(A) erroneously had not reduced the relief of ₹ 5,93,000 granted by him in para 6.3(i) of his order. Accordingly, the addition made by the A.O. is reduced to ₹ 13,79,710. No other arguments were raised by the assessee in regard to the addition made by the A.O. amounting to ₹ 19,73,310.

..... his credit card for making payments on behalf of the private limited company. The expenses incurred by the assessee by using his credit card on behalf of the company, was reimbursed by the private limited company. The Assessing Officer reduced the reimbursement made by the private limited company from the total credit expenditure incurred by the assessee and the difference was considered as unexplained investment. The CIT(A) examined the cash deposits and after considering the reimbursement received by the assessee from the company, the balance was treated as unexplained investments.

The A.O. shall examine whether there was source for the deposits which had facilitated the credit card payments. The A.O. shall expeditiously dispose of the ma .....
