These facts are not disputed by he Revenue before us and the same are staring on us. Hence, we have no hesitation in directing the AO to delete the addition made under section 69 of the Act in respect of purchase of shares in respect of Sacheta Metals Ltd. Assessee had also made purchase of shares of Sundaram Finance Ltd. Since the said purchase of 10,000 shares of Sundaram Finance Ltd was made by the assessee from a broker entity belonging to Shri Mukesh Chokshi group, the AO concluded that the said transaction of purchase is bogus and accordingly made addition u/s 69 in A.Y. 2006-07. Assessee had made purchase by making payment by account payee cheques out of sources drawn from his bank statement. The shares have been duly dematerialised as is evident from the DEMAT statement. These shares were subsequently sold in 2 tranches by the assessee through the registered stock broker, Bonanza Stock Brokers Ltd and gains arising thereon were offered to tax by the assessee as business income.

It was also pointed out that the payment made for purchase of shares for A.Y. 2006-07 had been duly made out of accounted sources of the assessee in A.Y. 2006-07.
