Addition for unexplained expenditure on alleged bogus purchases...

Addition for unexplained expenditure on alleged bogus purchases was deleted because the books of account were not rejected and there was no tangible material showing that the purchases were inflated, bogus or otherwise unexplained. The assessee had produced primary records, including books, stock and purchase registers, bank statements, import documents and supplier ledgers, and the department did not discredit the quantitative or banking evidence; an ad hoc percentage disallowance could not replace proof. On the TDS mismatch issue arising from Form 26AS discrepancies, the direction to verify the assessee's claim of revised TDS returns and delete the addition if supported was upheld.
