..... in respect of explanation of source of the cash deposits. According to the assessee, he stated receipt of ₹ 30 lakh in cash on sale of shop, furniture and closing stock of textile, whereas according to the Assessing Officer, the assessee stated receipt of ₹ 30 lakh on sale of the shop only and in the registered deed, sale of the shop is recorded only at ₹ 6 lakhs and therefore balance ₹ 24 lakh received falls under the head income from other sources being premium received on sale of shop. The learned CIT(A) has rejected the contention of the assessee observing as under: 7. The facts of the case along with submission on record have been gone through.

In the circumstances, keeping in view the above facts and discussion, the addition made by the AO is confirmed u/s 69A of the Act and the ground of appeal is dismissed. 7.1 We find that the Ld. CIT(A) rejected the contention of the assessee mainly due to lack of evidence in support of the claim of the assessee. Before us, the learned counsel submitted that the assessee is willing to submit necessary documentary evidence in support of its claim of sale of closing stock of the textile and realisation of the debtors. 7.2 In view of the above facts and circumstances and in the interest of substantial justice, we set aside the order of the Ld. CIT(A) and restore the matter back to the file of the Assessing officer for deciding afresh with the direction to the assessee to file all the necessary documentary evidences in support of his claim. It is needless to mention that the assessee shall be afforded adequate opportunity of being heard. The grounds of the appeal of the assessee are accordingly allowed for statistical purposes. .....
