Where additional income declared during search was credited as loans, it was held that, since the taxpayer's only activity was land trading and the amount was already offered and accepted as business income, it could not be taxed as unexplained cash credit under s.68 read with s.115BBE; the addition was deleted. On alleged on-money enhancing capital gains, unsigned and undated seized notings and lack of corroboration, coupled with some plots not being sold as alleged, were held insufficient; the addition was deleted.
