Issues: Whether the disallowance on account of alleged bogus purchases should be sustained in full or restricted, and whether the gross profit already offered on such transactions should be adjusted while determining the addition.
Analysis: The purchases were supported by documentary evidence, though the suppliers were not produced and the purchases were treated as suspicious on the basis of sales tax information. Since the sales were not doubted, full disallowance was not warranted. At the same time, the purchases were held to have been made from the grey market, justifying an addition to the extent of the saving element embedded in such transactions. The adjustment had to avoid double taxation by giving credit for gross profit already declared on the same transactions.
Conclusion: The disallowance was confined to 12.5% of the bogus purchases, reduced by the gross profit rate already declared by the assessee on those transactions, and no addition was to be made where the declared gross profit exceeded 12.5%.
Final Conclusion: The additions were modified in the assessee's favour by restricting the disallowance to the net margin element arising from the alleged bogus purchases.
Ratio Decidendi: Where sales are accepted, addition on alleged bogus purchases should be confined to the profit element embedded in such purchases, after adjusting the gross profit already disclosed on the same transactions.
