In reply, it was submitted by the learned AR that these expenses have been incurred for the purposes of business as is evident from the explanation.

It was further submitted that this difference of Rs. 1,22,985/- during the year is the less expenditure on account of purchases claimed by the assessee and hence the action of the learned CIT(A) in sustaining the addition is untenable. 14. In reply, the learned CIT(DR) submitted that since assessee has failed to reconcile the account and the learned CIT(A) was justified in making the addition. 15.
