The real income doctrine requires objectively established contemporaneous circumstances showing that income did not accrue, rather than merely an absence of accounting entries. Unexplained-expenditure provisions apply to expenditure incurred in the relevant financial year and do not extend to an earlier capital advance merely carried forward, particularly where recorded in regular books. A capital work-in-progress write-off already added back in computing business income should not be added again, as this would result in double taxation.
