First appellate authority, who deleted the addition by observing as under:- " I have considered the submission of the appellant, issues discussed in the original assessment order, appeal order passed by my predecessor and directions of the Hon'ble IT A T. The only issue in dispute is regarding addition of Rs. 41,50,000/- as unrecorded profit on sale of flats. The adverse inference was drawn on the ground that in the same complex, appellant had sold flats to different parties at different rates. It was observed by the Assessing Officer that flat sold to Dr. Rajnish Juneja was sold at Rs. 22 lacs and to other parties the flats were sold at Rs. 7,50,000/- to Rs. 9,00,000/- and accordingly Assessing Officer applied the sale price relating to Dr. Rajnish Juneja in the case of sales made to other parties. The submission of the appellant is that the Assessing Officer has not properly appreciated the facts and contents of the sale deed and mechanically applied the sale price relating to Dr. Rajnish Juneja in case of other parties in total disregard to legal documents placed on record. It was submitt....

In fact, the tribunal has also directed the Assessing Officer to verify the fact of additional cost incurred in respect of sale of flat to Dr. Rajnish Juneja. In the light of corroborative evidences placed on record in support of additional cost incurred by the appellant, which is supported by the sale deed made with Dr. Juneja and the letter filed by Dr. Juneja for carrying out extra work. In view of the above there is no basis for estimating extra sale considerations in the case of appellant on presumption and surmises. Hence, the addition made by the Assessing Officer of Rs. 41,50,000/- is deleted." 5. The revenue, being aggrieved, is in appeal before us. The only ground taken by the revenue is against the deletion of addition of Rs,41,50,000/- 6. Ld. DR submitted that in the first round of appeal, while setting aside the matter to the file of the AO, the Tribunal vide order dated 25.02.2010 had directed the assessee to furnish the statement of account with respect to cost incurred with respect to each flat, however, the assessee did not comply with the said direction and did not furnish any supporting documents/evi....
