The definition requires income to be represented by money/bullion/jewellery/valuable article, or to be evidenced by entries or documents/transactions found during the s. 132 search. Since the quantum proceedings had already found that no incriminating material was recovered to support the addition, the statutory precondition failed, and the sum could not be treated as "undisclosed income"; the penalty was directed to be deleted and the appeal was allowed. - ITAT en-us Tue, 23 Dec 2025 07:59:05 +0530 Tue, 23 Dec 2025 07:59:07 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=95326 Penalty under s. 271AAB(1A) was examined on whether the amount offered during search and assessed as unexplained money under s. 69A read with s. 115BBE qualified as "undisclosed income" under Explanation (c) to s. 271AAB.
