The Appellate Tribunal addressed undisclosed sales and net profit determination. The CIT(A) limited the addition to the net profit element, with the Revenue arguing for a 12.5% rate instead of 8%. Incriminating material was found during a search at the director's residence, indicating off-the-books sales. The Tribunal ruled that a higher net profit rate must be justified based on business nature and facts, not arbitrarily. The Revenue failed to provide a reasonable basis for the 12.5% rate, and the High Court decision cited did not align with the assessee's activities. The Tribunal rejected the Revenue's argument, upholding the CIT(A)'s decision.
