..... shares as well as the bank statement showing the transaction made through banking channel. There is no material on record to suggest that the payment made of ₹ 2,00,000 through cheque towards purchase cost has been routed back to the assessee. There is nothing on record to suggest that the assessee has paid commission for obtaining accommodation entry. A reading of the impugned order passed under section 263 of the Act reveals that merely on presumption and surmises learned PCIT has assumed jurisdiction under section 263 of the Act. It is also evident, before the revisionary authority assessee has specifically stated that all relevant materials including evidence for payment made towards purchase cost were furnished before the AO. .....

Thus, based on such information, and following CBDT Instruction No. 12 of 2016 dated 11.11.2016, the AO completed the assessment under section 143(3) of the Act accepting the income returned by the assessee. Subsequently, in exercise of power conferred under section 263 of the Act, learned Pr. CIT called for and examined the assessment records of the assessee for the impugned assessment year. After examining the assessment record, he was of the view that the assessment order passed is erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of revenue as the AO has not added the entire sale consideration of ₹ 1,25,67,400/- without deducting purchase cost and ha .....

In support of such contention, learned Counsel relied upon the following decisions:- i. Manju Osatwal Vs. Pr. CIT-10, Kol in ITA No. 707/Kol/2019 dt. 15/01/2020 ii. Mrs. Manisha Ajay Shah Vs. Pr.

A reading of the impugned order passed under section 263 of the Act reveals that merely on presumption and surmises learned PCIT has assumed jurisdiction under section 263 of the Act.

It is not the case of the Revenue that the amount paid by the assessee for purchase of shares has travelled back to the assessee in the form of cash or any other manner. 6. The provisions of section 263 of the Act can be invoked if, the twin conditions mandated under the section are satisfied, i.e: (i) the order of the Assessing Offic .....
