Disallowance of Expenses - AO erred in appreciating that nonreply of Section 133(6) notices cannot necessarily lead to disallowance of petty expenses ranging from Rs. 9,000/- to Rs. 1,00,000/- in the absence of any other proof of non-incurring of expenses. Assessee has provided primary and direct evidences along with the PAN & address and hence, no disallowance can be made merely on the reason of noncompliance of the parties to the notices issued u/s 133(6) of the Act. - AT
