Issues: Whether the assessee was entitled to adduce additional evidence under Rule 29 of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal Rules, 1963, and whether the addition made under section 68 of the Income-tax Act, 1961, in respect of the alleged gift required fresh consideration.
Analysis: The additional documents produced before the Tribunal were found to have a direct bearing on the controversy and were considered necessary for a just of the dispute. Since those materials had not been examined by the assessing authority or the first appellate authority, the Tribunal held that the matter should be restored for fresh adjudication after giving the assessee a reasonable opportunity of being heard and after considering the additional evidence.
Conclusion: The matter was remanded to the assessing officer for fresh decision and the assessee succeeded in part on the question of admission and consideration of additional evidence.
