Telescoping of cash recognised in an earlier year as exempt agricultural-land sale proceeds remains available against a later unexplained-money addition unless the Revenue establishes its intervening investment or expenditure. Cash attributed to a non-earning senior citizen mother and minor children may be explained through household savings, pin money, stridhan and customary family gifts; non-filing of returns alone does not discredit such explanations where income does not exceed the non-taxable threshold. The evaluation must account for human probabilities, surrounding circumstances and Indian socio-cultural practices rather than demand commercial records or mathematical precision. The remaining addition for unexplained money was deleted.
