The CIT(A) deleted the addition, stating that s. 145(1) was not applicable as proper production records were maintained and verified by authorities. The ITAT upheld the CIT(A)'s decision, noting that production records were maintained and verified. However, a partial addition of Rs. 10,000 was made for undervaluation of closing stock of chhilka and phak/rice bran due to discrepancies in sales valuation. The appeal by the Revenue was partly allowed, while the cross-objection by the assessee was dismissed.---
