Whether the transactions constituted a benami transfer: tribunal found essential ingredients of Section 2(9)(A) satisfied because consideration for land and shares credited to the ostensible transferee originated from and was controlled by the real transferor, funds were rotated among related entities, and claimed loan repayments were non-genuine; therefore the transfers were benami and subject to statutory consequences.
