Assessing Officer adds commission income under Section 68, taxed under Section 115BBE; appeal suggested. An individual raised a query regarding an income tax issue where the Assessing Officer (AO) added an amount already shown as commission income in the profit and loss account under Section 68 and taxed it under Section 115BBE. The AO claimed the assessee did not conduct any business and failed to produce individuals from whom the commission was received. In the previous year, the same income was considered business income. A respondent suggested filing an appeal to the First Appellate Authority, referencing the assessee's own case. (AI Summary)
