Disallowance based on third party information about unexplained purchases was challenged. ITAT held that the additions were unsustainable as the disallowance was solely based on unverified third-party information gathered by the Department's Investigation Wing, without providing an opportunity for cross-examination to the assessee, who had prima facie substantiated the purchases through documentation like bills, confirmed accounts, and VAT registration of sellers.
