The ITAT held that penalty under section 271(1)(c) could not be sustained where the assessing officer did not dispute the genuineness of purchases or the corresponding sales and quantities recorded in the books.

Consequently, the penalty confirmed by the CIT(A) was deleted, and the appeal filed by the assessee was allowed.
