Issues:
- Appeal against the judgment of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal regarding the addition made on account of bogus opening stock
- Appeal against the deletion of addition made on account of bogus credits of M/s. Khushi
- Appeal against the deletion of addition made on account of bogus credits of M/s. Sanket Export
- Appeal against the deletion made by the Ld. CIT(A) of certain expenses

Analysis:
1. The first issue pertains to the addition made on account of bogus opening stock. The Tribunal, Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), and the High Court examined the genuineness of the stock declaration. The Assessing Officer doubted the declaration, but subsequent inquiries and evidence provided by the assessee, including a certificate from the Superintendent of Central Excise, supported the authenticity of the stock. The stock was sold with proper declarations, and monthly returns were filed for claiming CENVAT credit. Both lower authorities and the High Court concluded that the declaration was genuine based on the record. Thus, no question of law arose, and the appeal was dismissed.

2. The second and third issues involve the addition made on account of bogus credits of M/s. Khushi and M/s. Sanket Export. The Assessing Officer believed these creditors were bogus, but the Tribunal, following the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), found sufficient evidence of the creditors' genuineness. The Tribunal noted that adding these purchases as bogus would distort the gross profit rate. Both lower authorities concurred in favor of the assessee based on the record, and the High Court found no question of law, leading to the dismissal of the appeals.

3. The final issue concerns the deletion of certain expenses by the Ld. CIT(A). The total expenses amounted to a nominal sum, and the issue was deemed factual. The High Court did not find any legal question to consider, resulting in the dismissal of the appeal.

In conclusion, the High Court dismissed the appeals concerning the addition of bogus opening stock, bogus credits of M/s. Khushi and M/s. Sanket Export, and the deletion of certain expenses, as no legal questions were found based on the concurrent findings of the lower authorities.
