In our considered view, the authorities below cannot be allowed to treat one transaction as income and reject on the other on the ground that it has incurred loss and is bogus and suspicious. Accordingly we set aside the order of Ld. CIT(A) and direct the AO to allow the set off of short term capital loss of Rs. 66,16,432/- from long term capital gain from the sale of shares of M/s Unishire Urban Infra Ltd. and tax the net income from capital gain which is also in accordance with the provisions of Section 70(3) of the Act.
