ITAT ruled in favor of the appellant, reversing the addition made under s. 68 for unexplained cash credits. The Tribunal found that since the Department had not disputed the genuineness of the assessee's business transactions or books of account, there was no justification for treating bank deposits as unexplained. The CIT(A)'s order was deemed cryptic, arbitrary and legally deficient for failing to provide a speaking order as required under ss. 250(4) and 250(6).

The addition was directed to be deleted as no undisclosed sources of income had been established.
