Disallowance of alleged bogus purchases/unexplained expenditure under s. 37 was held unsustainable where the AO relied solely on a third-party's subsequently retracted statement alleging invoice accommodation without delivery, without confronting or rebutting the assessee's documentary evidence.

The disallowance was therefore deleted and the appeal of the revenue failed. - ITAT
