ITAT held that no undisclosed income can be computed based on uncorroborated loose slips seized from a third party's premises. The Tribunal found insufficient evidence to substantiate cash payment allegations, as the seized documents lacked specific details about the assessee, transaction amounts, or dates. No corroborative evidence was presented to confirm the presumed loan transactions. Consequently, the Assessing Officer's additions were deleted, and the ground of appeal was allowed. Additionally, the Tribunal permitted interest-free advances to a sister concern, recognizing the commercial rationale of avoiding potential external borrowing costs.
