..... e assessee is in appeal before us against the aforesaid order passed by Ld. CIT(Appeals). We observe that the assessee is not aggrieved with the additions made by the AO and also confirmed by Ld. CIT(Appeals) in the appellate order under section 80U and section 80G of the Act. The only grievance of the assessee is that so far as addition in relation to disallowance under section 80U (permanent disability) is concerned, the AO did not mention specifically under which section the disallowance has been made. Secondly, in respect of disallowance under section 80G, the AO erred in facts and in law in invoking the provisions of section 69A of the Act while confirming the additions, since section 69A refers to unexplained money which the assessee .....
