To our understanding, the ground raised by the assessee is not sustainable for the reason that the addition was made on the concession of the assessee which is evident from the assessment order - AR has not brought out anything based on the documentary evidence that the income offered during the assessment proceedings was wrong. Accordingly, we do not find any merit in the ground raised by the assessee. Disallowance of bogus loss - As alleged by the authorities below that such loss was set off of against the income derived by the assessee from the sale purchase of property whereas there was no income added .....

Secondly, the company provided loan to the assessee i.e. M/s Ken Securities Limited has declared loss in the income tax return and thus the creditworthiness of the company was not proved. 11.

..... Appellant in the books of account has shown purchase of imrnovable property amounting to Rs.2,00,00,000/- and sale on the same date at Rs. 18,00,00,000/-. Appellant has set off the gain by claiming the loss on sale of security of Rs.12,66,98,547/-. Appellant has contended that ail entries including loss on sale of security are only accommodation entry, however, the AO has disallowed the loss while accepting the paper gain of Rs.16,00,000/- shown in the account. Though it has been established that appellant is a paper company, if appellant has claimed bogus loss, AO was perfectly justified to disallow the same. In view of the above, disallowance made by the AO is confirmed. The related grounds of appeal are accordingly dismissed. 21. Being aggrieved by the order of the learned CIT-A, the assessee is in appeal before us. 22.
