ITAT held that an ad hoc 20% disallowance of truck rent expenses could not stand where the assessee had filed supporting details, sample invoices and vehicle registration papers, but the AO had not made proper verification, enquiries or rejected the books of account.

The separate addition relating to unpaid motor truck rent was not upheld on the existing record and was remanded to the AO for verification after giving the assessee one further opportunity of hearing.
