..... herefore there may be more booking amount in cash. We do not find any infirmity in such assumption by the ld Assessing Officer because the assessee has not supplied any information about the total area and list of advances received from parties. It is also surprising that the assessee has stated before the ld CIT(A) that AO has made enquiry u/s 133(6) of the Act and buyers have confirmed. No such evidences have been placed either before the ld CIT(A) or before us or no such reference could be found from the assessment orders itself. We agree with the ld CIT(A) that AO cannot arrive at any figure without any basis by adopting an arbitrary method of calculation. Therefore, even the AO is not justified in assuming the impugned figure of cas .....

No such evidences have been placed either before the ld CIT(A) or before us or no such reference could be found from the assessment orders itself. However we agree with the ld CIT(A) that AO cannot arrive at any figure without any basis by adopting an arbitrary method of calculation. Therefore, even the Assessing Officer is not justified in assuming the impugned figure of cash sale out of the books. In view of this we set aside the whole issue of this addition covered in ground No. 1 of the appeal of the Revenue back to the file of the Assessing Officer wi .....

..... g. Whether such claim has also arisen during the course of business vis a vis with respect to other buyers and whether at the time of booking of such space there was an agreement to pay such compensation. Before the ld Assessing Officer no details were furnished and the ld CIT(A) has not examined the claim of the assessee from above aspect. In view of this we set aside this ground of appeal to the file of the ld Assessing Officer to decide the issue of the claim afresh. Needless to say that opportunity of hearing may be granted to the assessee and after making proper enquiry the issue may be decided. In the result ground No. 2 of the appeal of the revenue is allowed with above direction. 11. In the result appeal of the revenue is allowed .....
