The Tribunal's analysis focused on the relevance of Rule 6DD (j) of the Income-tax Rules, 1962, in conjunction with the CBDT's circular No. 220 dated 31.5.1977. It was noted that the Assessing Officer had conducted inquiries and received confirmations from the concerned parties, including a certification from a Chartered Accountant, regarding the cash payments made for agricultural implements.3. The judgment highlighted that the sales of the assessee were not in question, indicating that corresponding purchases were evident. The Tribunal referenced a previous ruling by the Punjab and Haryana High Court, emphasizing that Section 40A (3) of the Act should be considered alongside Rule 6DD, and that the circumstances outlined in the circular were illustrative rather than exhaustive.4.

As a result, the Tribunal found no legal issue to be raised and dismissed the application, affirming the validity of the Assessing Officer's order.This detailed analysis underscores the Tribunal's thorough examination of the legal provisions and factual circumstances surrounding the assessment, providing clarity on the interpretation and application of the relevant tax laws in the context of the case at hand.
