Addition u/s 68 - unsecured loan - addition made towards the said loan treating the same as unexplained was not warranted, hence deleted the addition - HELD THAT:- We note that loan and advance is getting reflected in the Individual Balance Sheet as well as in the balance sheet of M/s Shri Kuberji Developers therefore, it is not a case that assessee has concealed the details of such loan.

The Revenue contended that the addition of Rs.2,08,17,210/- on account of unaccounted unsecured loan was erroneously deleted by the CIT(A).

The CIT(A) upheld the deletion of the addition, noting that the loan was reflected in both the individual and firm's balance sheets. The Tribunal concurred, finding no concealment of the loan details and dismissed the Revenue's appeal.In conclusion, the Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s decision to delete the addition of the unsecured loan, as it was duly reflected in the balance sheets, and dismissed the Revenue's appeal.
