Since the facts are common and connected, I am referring to the facts and figures from A.Y. 2009-10. 4. Brief facts of the case are as under: Assessment Year 2009-10 (I.T.No. 116) has been taken as lead year. The Return of Income in this case was filed on 27.09.2009 declaring total income of Rs. 8,15,510/-. Subsequently, the A.O. received information from Sales Tax Department and also from the office of DGIT (Inv), Mumbai that the appellant is a beneficiary of accommodation Bills of purchases from certain bogus Hawala Dealers.
