Addition u/s. 68 being unsecured loans - onus to prove - The ITAT held that, primary onus can be discharged by establishing/furnishing the proof of the identity of the creditor, their creditworthiness and genuineness of transaction. Once the primary evidence in relation to the identity, genuineness and creditworthiness is furnished by the assessee, the burden shifts on the revenue to bring credible material before rejecting the primary document furnished by the assessee. - Since, revenue authorities failed to discharge the burden shifted on them, the tribunal deleted the additions.
