Extended limitation requires willful misstatement or suppression with intent to evade; mere misclassification does not sustain confiscation or penalty...
Where an assessing officer treated an amount shown as outstanding in the assessee's balance-sheet as unexplained income, the Tribunal accepted that bank account statements and TDS challans (including TDS payment with interest and late fee) evidencing subsequent payment sufficiently established the outstanding liability; the sale deeds' recital of full receipt without recording mode of payment did not override documentary banking evidence. On that basis the Tribunal held the Section 69A addition unsustainable and deleted the addition, allowing the assessee's appeal for the relevant assessment year.
