Disallowance of purchases under section 37 was challenged where the assessee produced invoices, bank statements showing payments through banking channels, supplier confirmations and GST returns; the Tribunal held that production of these documents discharged the assessee's primary onus and, absent affirmative contrary material from the revenue proving suppliers non-existent or payments returned as cashback, the AO/first appellate authority could not draw an adverse inference to disallow entire purchases.
