Scope of enquiry by the CIT(A) - it was a clear case of exercise of overriding power by ld. CIT(A) in terms of Rule 46A(4) and it was not a case where the assessee on his own volition had furnished additional evidence or fresh document, which would have been subjected to sub-rule (1) to (3) of Rule 46A of the Rules. - the results of the enquiries thus conducted supported the case of the assessee and not that of the Revenue. However, the fact remains that such material was gathered by the ld. CIT(A) on his own motion, and therefore there was no requirement, in law for him, to consult the AO on the same. - AT
