Issues Involved:
1. Addition of outstanding amount in the name of sundry creditor
2. Addition to capital account
3. Disallowance of 10% out of wages claimed and Diwali expenses
4. Addition of undisclosed receipt
5. Addition of employees' share of PF contribution

Issue No.1:
The assessee contested the addition of an outstanding amount of Rs. 62,890 in the name of a sundry creditor. The Assessing Officer (A.O.) added the amount as the assessee failed to prove the genuineness of the credit. The assessee argued that the amount was an advance received and offered for taxation in a subsequent year. The Tribunal set aside the lower authorities' orders and directed the A.O. to verify the taxation status of the amount for the relevant year.

Issue No.2:
The A.O. made an addition to the capital account, which the assessee challenged. The Tribunal found that the source of the capital introduced was through the assessee's bank account, but no specific findings were provided. The matter was remanded to the A.O. for re-consideration with a direction to re-decide the issue on its merits.

Issue No.3:
The disallowance of 10% of wages claimed and Diwali expenses was contested by the assessee. The A.O. disallowed the expenses, citing lack of proof of genuineness. However, the Tribunal found the addition unjustified, noting the nature of the business and the bonus payment to employees. The entire addition was deleted, emphasizing the admissibility of the expenses.

Issue No.4:
An addition as undisclosed receipt was made by the A.O., which the assessee disputed. The Tribunal observed discrepancies in the amounts mentioned and directed the A.O. to re-examine the issue, considering the Form 26AS details and TDS certificates provided by the assessee.

Issue No.5:
The addition of employees' share of PF contribution was challenged by the assessee. As the issue was not decided by the lower authorities, the Tribunal directed the CIT(A) to address this ground of appeal in accordance with the law.

In conclusion, the appeal of the assessee was partly allowed, with various issues being remanded back to the Assessing Officer or the CIT(A) for reconsideration or further examination.
