ITAT held that additions for alleged capital gains and unexplained cash under section 69A, founded solely on uncorroborated personal diary entries and retracted statements of employees/directors, lacked evidentiary foundation and were deleted. Reassessment proceedings initiated by the jurisdictional AO were declared void ab initio as jurisdiction had vested in the Faceless Assessing Officer under the notified scheme; consequently the section 148 notice was coram non judice. The assessment order was also vitiated for failure to generate/quote a valid pre-generated DIN, rendering it a nullity. The appellate enhancement sought by Revenue was held not maintainable for want of cogent material within the scope of matters before the AO/CIT(A).
