ITAT held that the assessee was not a shell company, since the record showed regular corporate existence and business activity; the returned business loss could not be rejected on that basis and was allowed to be carried forward. On section 68, the assessee discharged the initial burden by producing lender-wise confirmations, bank statements, ledger accounts, affidavits and returns, while the Revenue failed to make any independent rebuttal; the Tribunal also noted that proof of source of source was not required for unsecured loans for AY 2018-19.
