Whether the Tribunal erred in directing the deletion of a sum on account of consignment purchases made by the assesseeRs.2. Whether the Tribunal erred in appreciating the circumstances leading to the deletion made by the AO on account of the finding that the identity, creditworthiness, and genuineness of the transactions with the assessee's creditors had not been duly establishedRs.Analysis:Issue 1:The appeal under Section 260A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 was directed against the order passed by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) regarding consignment purchases made by the assessee. The Assessee is in the business of supplying milk and milk products on a consignment basis. A survey under Section 133A of the Act was conducted, leading to scrutiny of the Assessee's accounts. The Assessing Officer (AO) rejected the claim of consignment purchases made by the Assessee, treating them as own trading of goods. The AO added amounts to the taxable income based on profit calculations and undisclosed closing stock. The Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) allowed the Assessee's appeal, considering additional evidence provided. The CIT (A) found discrepancies but did not reject the Assessee's books entirely. The net addition was directed after accounting for commission income.Issue 2:Regarding the deletion made by the AO on account of the creditors, the AO added amounts to the income of the Assessee due to unverified and unsubstantiated creditors. The CIT (A) found discrepancies in the figures provided by the Assessee but accepted explanations and additional evidence. The CIT (A) was satisfied with the identity and creditworthiness of most creditors. The ITAT concurred with the CIT (A)'s findings on both consignment sales and unexplained credits. The Court found no legal error in the conclusions of the ITAT, affirming the decisions in favor of the Assessee against the Revenue.In conclusion, the Court dismissed the appeal, upholding the decisions in favor of the Assessee on both issues related to consignment purchases and creditors' identity and creditworthiness.
