Assessee failed to rebut the evidence. Penalty upheld for undisclosed capital gains from land sale confirmed by appellate authorities based on seized material. Penalty u/s 271AAA deleted for additions made on a protective basis, following judicial precedents. Penalties u/ss 271AAA and 271(1)(c) are mutually exclusive for the same assessment year. Penalty u/s 271(1)(c) upheld for unexplained bank deposits as assessee failed to provide explanations, and additions were confirmed by appellate authorities in quantum proceedings.

Mere entries in seized material were insufficient. Penalty u/s 271(1)(c) upheld for unexplained bank deposits in the assessee's brother's account, as the assessee could not provide a plaus.
