The learned CIT(A) has erred in law and on facts in admitting the fresh evidences and submission without giving any opportunity to the A.O. being heard on the principles of law and natural justice and thereby violated the provision of Rule 46A of the I.T. Rules." 2. Briefly stated, the relevant material facts are like this. During the course of assessment proceeding, the Assessing Officer noticed that the assessee has sold plot of land to M/s Devdeep Mlls Developers Pvt. Ltd. for a consideration of Rs. 7,81,00,000/-.

In the absence of any adverse finding by A.O., the content of affidavits are deemed to be accepted. Therefore, the brokerage of Rs. 3,12,500/- should be allowed while computing the capital gain.

As the vacant possession was necessary for sale of land, the expenditure incurred for payment of hutment charges is available while computing long term capital gain.
