The Revisionary order is not sustainable in law. It be quashed. 2. On the facts and circumstances of the case and in law the A. 0. made the original assessment u/s 143(3) of the Act dt. 09-09- 2011 after full application of mind the way the I. T. Act, 1961 requires.

There is no dispute on the fact that the assessee has introduced cash of Rs.7,00,000/- as capital in the firm. Prima facie, enough cash was not available with the assessee to introduce as capital. The Assessing Officer had not verified it. During the hearing before the ld.CIT, the assessee submitted that he had taken Loan of Rs.20,61,250/- from Life Insurance Corporation of India. However, the ld.CIT observed that the explanation submitted by the assessee was not acceptable. 3.2 We agree with the ld.CIT, that the explanation of the assessee that he had obtained Loan from LIC and then Rs.7,00,000/- had been introduced in cash as Capital in the firm, is not acceptable.

At that stage, the assessee resisted furnishing details by submitting that such details related to his security and any disclosure might be detrimental to his security. Then, by letter dated 13-3-2004, the assessee, asserted that his claim was allowable but since it will not be feasible to substantiate the same, such claim may be treated as withdrawn. Thereafter, a show-cause notice was issued to the assessee under section 69C of the said Act as to why these additional expenses claimed not to be treated as an unexplained expenditure. Such withdrawal was accepted by the AO and the proceedings under section 69C were ordered to be closed. The CIT, in such circumstances, exercised revisional jurisdictio .....

Besides, the CIT, by the impugned order, had quite fairly, granted the assessee an opportunity of being heard whilst directing the AO to verify the claim of the assessee in respect of the allowability of the expenditure and carry forward of the loss of Rs. 1,78,57,950/- in accordance with law. In similar circumstances the Hon'ble Supreme Court, in the case of Daniel Merchants P. Ltd. (supra), upheld that order of the Commissioner which had directed the AO to carry a thorough and detailed inquiry. 31. For all the aforesaid reasons we set aside the ITAT's order dated 11-2-2015 and answer the substantial questions of law as framed, in favour of the Revenue and against the asses .....
