....ion that the assessee had deposited the cash of Rs. 15,32,000/- for the year in question in her Axis Bank, Vapi account. It was found that the assessee has been carrying on share trading business which was not disclosed in her return of income. The assessee filed a revised computation along with copy of audit report. The Assessing Officer asked for source and explanation of cash deposited in the Axis Bank account. According to AO, the revised audit report and computation were an afterthought when the assessee was caught indulging in undisclosed share trading business. The adverse inference was drawn by AO on following facts:- (i) The theory of retail business resulting income of Rs. 2,32,502/- from sales proceeds of Rs. 4,96,....

In the facts and circumstances of the case, we are in complete agreement with the view taken by the learned Tribunal as well as the learned CIT(A) restricting the addition to the extent of Rs. 7,95,160/-. Under the circumstances, as there arise no substantial question of law, present tax appeal deserves to be dismissed and is, accordingly, dismissed."

....ion and corroborative evidence, the IT authorities will be perfectly justified in drawing considerable adverse inference and applying the Hon'ble Supreme Court judgment in the case of Sumati Dayal (supra). There is no parity of facts between the assessee's case and the case of Manoj Indravadan Chokshi (supra). There is no infirmity in the orders of the authorities below which may be upheld. 8. I have heard the rival contentions, perused the material available on record and gone through the orders of the authorities below. I find considerable merit in the contentions of the ld. DR. The conduct of the assessee is full of lapses and latches; and lacks bona fides. The original return was deliberately filed with inaccurate particulars. When t....
