....income observing the same to be real income, which was Rs. 24,73,843/- and upholding the taxability of the same without appreciating that above observation of AO / CIT(A) are contradicting to each other. 2. That the CIT(A) failed to appreciate that once the applicant had earned the interest income of Rs. 24,73,843/-, he would have obviously incurred expenditure on payment of salary etc. and, therefore, there was no basis for disallowing total salary expenses amounting to Rs. 23,98,000/- debited to P & L Account. 3. That the CIT(A) also erred in not allowing adjournment in the circumstance when Mr. Tarun Goyal was not available to provide the details when admittedly Tarun Goyal was looking after the affairs of the company and had also ap....

.... of expanse under this head. ii) It has already been proved that the companies floated by SH. Taran Goyal are only paper companies & no actual business is carried out by these paper companies. Hence question of incurring expense does not arise. iii) During the assessments proceedings the appellant could not produce any evidence to substantiate this expense. During the appellate proceeding no new facts have been brought in spite of various opportunities given to the appellant. I have passed appeal order in various cases of Tarun Goyal group of companies.

....d been sought are crucial for deciding the issue and the opportunity to place them on record has been denied by the CIT(A). 4.1.

....vits to their logical conclusion does not lay down the law that filing of false affidavits is a harmless exercise. The fact that the State may be over burdened with meeting the daily, monthly targets of their assigned task does not absolve the crime of false affidavit as the inaction by the Quasi Judicial Authorities does not protect a person found to have committed perjury from prosecution. For the purposes of the present case it may also not be out of place to state that the filing of such an affidavit is not a requirement of law as there is no such statutory requirement to do so. In strict terms, it may not constitute an evidence. The affidavit is only in substitution of a direct primary evidence which has not been filed. If a fact which....
