The facts of the case and the submissions of the appellant are not considered in right perspective and various findings made by the Id. CIT(A) including that all the 7 unsecuredv lenders were apparently unconnected persons are either factually incorrect or untenable law. 3. That the Id.

....181500 27.06.2009 3. Aggrieved by this the assessee preferred an appeal before the ld.CIT (A) who in turn confirmed the addition u/s 68 of the Act. Therefore, the assessee is in appeal before us. 4. The ld. AR of the assessee submitted a Paper Book wherein the details of income tax return, computation of income, statement of affairs of bank statement of the seven creditors are submitted. The ld. AR of the assessee submitted that despite filing the confirmation no summons have been issued to these parties. Hence, the addition has been wrongly made by the AO and the same was wrongly confirmed by the ld.CIT (A). 5. The ld. DR relied on the orders of the lower authorities and submitted that assessee has failed to prove the creditworthiness and genuineness of the transaction. 6. We have carefully considered the rival contention. We have also perused the Paper Book submitted before us containing the details of unsecured loans wherein with respect to all seven lenders their confirmation, Copy of bank account computation of total income and return of income along with statement of affairs are submitted.

....ilar manner. In case of Mr. Ashique Elahi the income of Rs. 210,000/- has been shown however, there is no narration in the computation of total income about the activities of these persons. In the statement of affairs cash at hand of Rs. 170,000/- has been shown, further in his bank account only cash of Rs. 25,000/- is available. In the case of Rehmat Elahi, the facts are also identical. Therefore all these evidences in case of lenders lead that the identity of these creditors have been proved and nothing else. In view of the above facts, we confirm the order of the learned Commissioner of Income tax (Appeals) confirming addition of Rs. 6125000/- with respect to 10 lenders unsecured loan added u/s 68 of the Act. Accordingly, ground No.1 of the appeal is dismissed. 7. In this case in some of the bank accounts there are entries of transfer deposits in the bank account of these persons before the issue of cheque to the assessee. However we could not find any entry of unsecured loan in the statement of affairs of these parties except gift received from the mother of Rs. 50,000/- in some accounts. Therefore there is no source available with the assessee of the sums shown to have been....
