..... ) has erred in giving part relief to the assessee and against the addition of Rs. 2,06,03,900, the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) has granted a relief of Rs. 59,87,250 and has erred in confirming the other addition, which is against the facts and circumstances of the case. 2. That the learned Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) has erred in considering certain unauthenticated loose documents seized from the premises of some other party, which do not have the confirmation/signatures of the assessee, cannot be taken as conclusive evidence against the assessee for alleged transactions outside the books of account and the judgment of the hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Common Cause (A Registered Society) v.

Brief facts are that the additions contested by the assessee have been made by the Assessing Officer on the basis of search conducted on one party at "Batala" namely "M/s. Kartika Gold Enterprises" on March 14, 2012 and on the basis of certain documents seized from the "Batala" party, where on the basis of name of the assessee as mentioned in the seized documents, the additions have been made in the hands of the assessee on account of sales made by the assessee and remittances received by the assessee from M/s.

..... that assessee and it is beyond comprehension how the assessee's closing stock could be made a part of a noting of a third party. Further, it was argued that such documents as seized are not as per regular books of account of that party, but notings made on rough paper at any given point of time and, therefore, the addition as made in the hands of the assessee on the basis of such unauthentic "computerized prints" have no evidenciary value and, therefore, the addition made in the hands of the assessee deserves to be deleted. 10. The main plea of the assessee is that how and when and at which point of time, such documents at pages 23 to 25 have been made by that party and, how, the tabulation of figures have been made against the name of .....

..... f purchase entered by M/s. Kartika Gold Enterprises have been found and seized. Based on the details of purchases, the Revenue authorities have added the entire quantum of the value of the sale of gold made by the assessee. We find that the addition of the entire amount cannot be held to be valid and there is no dispute that the sale to M/s. Kartika Gold Enterprises could not have been made without purchase of gold by the assessee. Hence, the cost of gold has to be deducted from the sale price and the profit earned by the assessee through the sale should be rightly brought to tax.
