An addition for unexplained investment cannot be sustained unless the investment was made in the financial year immediately preceding the relevant assessment year. Here, the ledger accounts and year-wise expenditure charts showed that the opening work-in-progress consisted of expenditure incurred over several earlier years, and the Revenue itself treated it as a prior-period balance.
