Validity of assessment u/s 153A regarding unexplained cash credits u/s 68, absence of incriminating material found during search proceedings, and lack of valid approval u/s 153D. The key points are: the assessment proceedings were unabated when the search was conducted; no incriminating material pertaining to the assessment year was found during the search to justify additions u/s 68; statements recorded before or after the search cannot be considered incriminating material; mere observation about investors' financials cannot constitute incriminating material; in the absence of incriminating material, additions cannot be made for unabated assessments; the Assessing Officer continued assessment proceedings and modified the draft order after forwarding it for approval u/s 153D, resulting in material variance from the approved draft order; the final order was passed without valid approval as required u/s 153D, rendering it unsustainable.
