CIT(A) confirmed the addition in the hands of the assessee. 7. On going through the facts of the instant case, we are of the considered view that the CIT(A), after taking into consideration all the aspects of the matter, has held that the assessee has not been able to provide any supporting evidence to prove the genuineness of the transaction or the creditworthiness of the lender. Accordingly, looking into the facts, we find no infirmity in the order of the Ld. CIT(A) so as to call for any interference. In the result, ground no.5 of the assessee's appeal is dismissed. 8.

CIT(A) has not disputed the genuineness of the services which have been availed by the assessee and nothing on record has been brought to show that why such payment was held to be excessive. Regarding other expenses relating to telephone use and out of shop expenses, again we observe that the CIT(A) has not given any basis as to why the additions are liable to be sustained in the hands of the assessee. In the result, ground nos.6 & 7 of the assessee's appeal are allowed. 14. Ground no.8 - addition of income in the hands of the assessee on account of benami concerns. 15.

However, the Assessing Officer observed that none of the parties except the assessee are doing business from such premises.
