    <title>Section 153D approval not bar to substantive review; revised return accepted; section 68 loans upheld as genuine</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93433</link>
    <description>ITAT holds that the approving authority&#039;s mechanical approval under section 153D does not preclude substantive consideration; on facts the assessee&#039;s revised return declaring 14-15% profit is accepted because group net profit computed from seized and books material is 1.47%, substantially below declared rates and prior-year margins, hence no further addition warranted and impugned additions are deleted, allowing the assessee&#039;s cross-objection and dismissing the revenue&#039;s appeal. The CIT(A)&#039;s rejection of AO&#039;s unsupported agricultural income estimate is upheld on documentary proof (J-forms, khasra/khatauni). Unsecured loans are treated as genuine under section 68 on furnished confirmations, PANs and ITRs; related additions are deleted and revenue&#039;s grounds dismissed.</description>
