Estimation of profit element in non-genuine purchases: the Tribunal held that the CIT(A) mechanically followed an earlier ITAT direction limiting disallowance without independently verifying factual parity between years or the effect of later binding precedents, and that subsequent authority criticises fixed-rate profit estimates where the assessee fails to prove genuineness.
