Issues Involved:
1. Addition of Rs. 2,66,60,000/- against the declared income.
2. Addition of Rs. 1,03,10,000/- in the capital account as unexplained.
3. Addition of Rs. 1,62,50,000/- as unexplained unsecured loans.
4. Ad-hoc addition of Rs. 1,00,000/- for personal use expenses.

Issue-wise Detailed Analysis:

1. Addition of Rs. 2,66,60,000/- Against Declared Income:
The assessee contested the total addition amounting to Rs. 2,66,60,000/-. However, this issue was addressed through the adjudication of subsequent specific grounds.

2. Addition of Rs. 1,03,10,000/- in the Capital Account as Unexplained:
The assessee claimed the addition was sourced from:
- Rs. 90,75,000/- transferred from M/s Euro Steels.
- Rs. 2,60,000/- transferred from Shri Rohit Jindal’s personal savings account.
- Rs. 5,00,000/- transferred from the assessee's savings account.
- Rs. 4,75,000/- received through banking channels but source unidentified.

The AO, in the remand report, observed discrepancies in the sources:
- M/s Euro Steels had low declared income, questioning its creditworthiness.
- No sufficient documentary evidence for Rs. 4,75,000/- and Rs. 2,60,000/-.

The CIT(A) upheld the addition, stating:
- The assessee failed to explain the sources of Rs. 4,75,000/- and Rs. 2,60,000/-.
- Numerous unexplained deposits in M/s Euro Steels’ bank account.

The Tribunal found:
- The AO's rejection based on M/s Euro Steels’ low income was unjustified.
- The assessee provided sufficient evidence for the transactions from M/s Euro Steels.
- No queries were raised by the AO regarding the source of deposits in Shri Rohit Jindal’s account.
- The addition of Rs. 4,75,000/- was upheld due to lack of evidence.

3. Addition of Rs. 1,62,50,000/- as Unexplained Unsecured Loans:
The assessee explained the loans were received from family members and friends:
- Rs. 19,95,000/- from M/s Kiran Industries through M/s Dev Krishan Jindal & Sons (HUF).
- Rs. 20,00,000/- from M/s Euro Steels through Mrs. Smriti Jindal.
- Rs. 54,31,000/- from Shri Ramesh Jain.
- Rs. 85,00,000/- from M/s Euro Steels through Shri Rohit Jain.
- Rs. 26,55,000/- from M/s Euro Steels through Mrs. Superna Jindal.
- Rs. 13,90,000/- from Shri Rohit Kumar Jindal.

The AO observed:
- Discrepancies in the capital account of Shri Rohit Jain.
- Lack of ITR for Shri Ramesh Jain.
- Incorrect details about M/s Kiran Industries’ proprietorship.

The CIT(A) upheld the addition, stating:
- Unexplained deposits in M/s Euro Steels’ bank account.
- Failure to prove the source of deposits in M/s Kiran Industries.

The Tribunal found:
- The AO's observations about M/s Euro Steels were unjustified.
- The assessee provided sufficient evidence for the transactions.
- The creditworthiness of M/s Kiran Industries was proven through Smt. Santosh Rani’s income.
- The addition of Rs. 1,42,55,000/- from M/s Euro Steels was deleted.
- The addition of Rs. 19,95,000/- from M/s Dev Krishan Jindal & Sons (HUF) was deleted.

4. Ad-hoc Addition of Rs. 1,00,000/- for Personal Use Expenses:
This ground was not pressed by the assessee and thus dismissed.

Conclusion:
The appeal was partly allowed, with specific additions deleted and others upheld based on the evidence and explanations provided by the assessee. The detailed analysis addressed each ground of appeal, considering the remand report, counter objections, and the final findings of the CIT(A) and Tribunal.
