Ltd. Subsequently, the assessment was reopened under Section 148 of the Income Tax Act on the grounds that the value of a property acquired by the Assessee and his wife exceeded the consideration paid for the shares. The matter was referred to the DVO u/s 55, who determined the market value of the asset. The difference between this value and the consideration paid was added as undisclosed investment u/s 69.The CIT(A) deleted the addition, a decision upheld by the ITAT. The ITAT noted the absence of any evidence suggesting extra payment by the Assessee for the shares. Relying on judgments in the cases of CIT vs. Shankuntala Devi and CIT vs. Suraj Devi, the Tribunal concluded that no additions could be made without concrete evidence. Consequently, it was held that no question of law arose, and the appeal was dismissed.
