Issues Involved:
1. Addition of gross profit on deficit of stock.
2. Whether the disclosure of Rs. 2 crores includes the gross profit on unaccounted sales.

Issue 1: Addition of Gross Profit on Deficit of Stock:

The appeal was filed by the Assessee against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) upholding the addition of Rs. 33,50,310 as gross profit on the deficit of stock. The Assessee contended that the alleged excess stock as per the books of account was either sold subsequently or part of the closing stock on 31st March, 2010. The Assessee argued that the books of accounts were regularly audited and maintained in conformity with Accounting Standards. The Assessee also cited a Tribunal decision to support their case. However, the Tribunal found that the addition on account of the deficit in stock was sustained by the Commissioner and deserved to be deleted. The Tribunal dismissed the appeal on this ground.

Issue 2: Disclosure of Rs. 2 Crores Including Gross Profit on Unaccounted Sales:

The Assessee, a private limited company engaged in manufacturing, disclosed Rs. 2 crores as income on behalf of its group to cover various transactions, including unaccounted sales and deficit of stock. The Assessing Officer disagreed with the Assessee's contention, stating that the disclosure of Rs. 2 crores was independent of the gross profit agreed to be offered on unaccounted sales. The Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) also rejected the Assessee's argument, emphasizing that the gross profit amount was not retracted by the Assessee. The Commissioner observed that the disclosure of Rs. 2 crores was distinct from the gross profit amount. The Tribunal noted that the Assessee failed to provide primary documents supporting their claim that the gross profit was included in the disclosure of Rs. 2 crores. The Tribunal upheld the decision of the authorities below, dismissing the appeal of the Assessee.

In conclusion, the Tribunal upheld the addition of gross profit on the deficit of stock and dismissed the appeal regarding whether the disclosure of Rs. 2 crores included the gross profit on unaccounted sales. The Assessee's arguments were not supported by sufficient evidence, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
