..... ot been examined in the light of the pleas and aspects that arise for consideration. Accordingly, we feel that the matter should be re-examined by the Tribunal. Liberty is also given to the appellant-assessee to file an application for additional evidence to justify and explain the reason for substantial cash withdrawals made between 12th June, 2009 to 16th October, 2009. We clarify that we have only remanded the matter for fresh consideration and have not finally determined or decided the aspect and issue on merits.
