....remand the matters to the Tribunal as some facts and questions of law have not been considered. Moreover, further evidence was called for by the order of the earlier Division Bench dated 26.11.2014. We may have considered the matters ourselves. However, as the issues of fact and appreciation of evidence are involved, it would be appropriate that the same are decided by the authorities under the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereafter referred to as 'the Act'). We are informed that the Tribunal itself had remanded a similar matter to the Assessing Officer. 3.

The Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) upheld the order of the Assessing Officer rejecting the books of account but sustained the addition of Rs. 10,00,000/- on account of the rejection of books.

.... Tribunal for instance held that the detailed enquiry made by the Assessing Officer by issuing summons under Section 131 of the Act to the vendors and also the enquiry made from the bank authorities establishes that the purchases were not genuine. The order does not indicate any reasons in support of this finding and in any event various aspects which have been dealt with by the CIT(Appeals) have not been taken into consideration while arriving at this finding. Further, the effect of the finding that the payments by the assessee to its vendors and of M/s Maa Durga Trading Company having withdrawn the same is not dealt with satisfactorily. Merely because M/s Maa Durga Trading Company withdrew the amount which was paid by the assessee to its ....
