The Tribunal ruled in favor of the appellant, deleting the addition of unexplained cash credit under section 68 and directing a review of the exemption claim under section 54F. The Tribunal found that the transactions were not bogus and lacked evidence to support the Assessing Officer's decision to add the sale consideration to the total income.
Issues involved: Addition of unexplained cash credit u/s 68.

The Tribunal referred to a similar case where such additions were deleted due to lack of evidence and application of mind by the Assessing Officer. The Tribunal ruled in favor of the appellant, deleting the addition u/s 68 and directing a review of the exemption claim u/s 54F.
