Therefore, confirmed the order of the Assessing Officer.

I submit that I have sustained huge loss in the business and sold my agricultural lands also to clear the debts I have made. My wife has given me an amount of Ps.16,00,000/- to clear the dues which was given to her by her mother considering the financial difficulty of my family. I am filling herewith an affidavit from her mother Smt. Chllikuri Subba Lakshmi confirming the amount given to my wife.

Ground Nos.1 to 5: The appellant raised the grounds stating that the Assessing Officer not justified in making addition at ₹ 17,84,920/- without giving any valid reasons. The appellant also contended that the Assessing Officer should have given the calculation of peak credit. Further, the appellant also stated that the Assessing Officer should have considered all the bank transactions which were reflected in the books of accounts but without considering the same, assessing the peak is incorrect. Not considering the loss against the peak is also a grievance of the appellant. The appellant vide submissions dated 18-01-2018, stated that he has incurred loss of ₹ 23,67,580/- in the share broking business and not claimed in the return as the same was filed belatedly.

The same were submitted vide letter dated 21-03-2018 as mentioned supra. The appellant contends that the conclusion and the report of the Assessing Officer are not based on the facts. The appellant concedes that he has incurred loss of ₹ 23,67,580/- but not claimed the same. The appellant contends that without considering the material facts, the Assessing Officer added the peak credit and requested to delete the same. I have considered the material facts including the report and counter comments as above. The appellant filed an affidavit for the first time before the appellate authority but there is no request or prayer and also no Provision/Rule was mentioned to file such a document. Additional evidence can be filed under Rule 46A of the IT Rules. Admission of the same depends upon the criteria whether the appellant was prevented from reasonable cause for not filing the same before the Assessing Officer. In the light of the facts of the case, it is clear that the Assessing Officer has not called for such documents at the t .....

The appellant contended that ₹ 16,00,000/- was received from his wife and the same need to be taken as source against the peak worked out by the Assessing Officer. In this connection, it is to be noticed that the affidavit which has been filed by the appellant is not admitted. However, without prejudice, assuming for a while that the document was admitted even then it will not help the appellant's case. The document was only an assertion made by third party and no confirmation from the wife of the appellant filed in support of the appellant's contention. There is no documentary evidence or bank account filed by the appellant to substantiate that money has been received from his wife so as to take the same as source against the peak worked out by the Assessing Officer, In view of these, the arguments of the appellant are rejected. 9.
