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. The Assessing Officer could not tax that historical investment in the current year merely because earlier returns were filed on a non-business basis or because prior disclosure was allegedly incomplete. The addition under Section 69 was therefore unsustainable and was deleted.
