ITAT held that the Assessing Officer's addition of Rs. 22.25 Crore under Section 69 was unsustainable. The addition was based solely on a retracted statement by the company's director and an unverified loose sheet lacking proper authentication.

The CIT(A)'s deletion of the addition was upheld, and the Revenue's appeal was consequently dismissed.
