Bogus purchase additions under section 69C were discussed in the context of whether the assessee had discharged the burden of proving genuineness; the note states that purchase invoices, supplier ledgers, transport receipts, banking records and regular books supported the transactions, and that a mere reversal of input tax credit did not by itself establish non-genuine purchases. It also addresses reassessment under section 148, stating that notice and the section 148A(d) order were not in accordance with law where the reopening was based on DGGI/Insight information, the material was not supplied to the assessee, and no independent application of mind was shown. The addition and reopening are described as unsustainable on those facts.
