ITAT allowed the assessee's appeal, directing the Assessing Officer (AO) to treat certain income streams as regular taxable income. The tribunal found that pension income from Indian Railways cannot be considered unexplained income. Rental receipts from the son's property should be taxed as other income. Regarding a cash deposit of Rs. 5,00,000, the tribunal accepted the assessee's claim of receiving a marriage gift from his sister-in-law, supported by a gift letter and notarized affidavit. The AO was instructed to not treat these amounts as unexplained cash credits, thereby substantially reducing the additional income assessment against the retired government employee.
