Learned AO observed that assessee had purchased 10,000 shares of M/s.

Thereafter he has quoted the price of the said scrip in the Bombay Stock Exchange from 06.02.2010 to 19.12.2016.

The shares transferred by the appellant reflect such a huge price rise in the shares of a defunct company without corresponding fundamentals, corroborated by information received from Investigation Wing of Department that the shares have been traded violating the SEBI's guidelines. In view of these facts it cannot be said that appellant has discharged the primary onus of proving the genuineness of transactions. However, it is noted that AO has added the entire sale consideration u/s 69A however, actual money introduced by the appellant in books of accounts during the year is long term capital gain i.e. Rs. 26,05,548/- (-) Rs. 1,63,000/- i.e. Rs. 24,42,548/- is the addition confirmed u/s 69A r.w.s 115BBE. Hence, these grounds of appeal are partly allowed while confirming action of 5 AO of making an addition on account of bogus long term capital gain claimed u/s 10(38)." 5. Before us, ld. counsel for the assessee submitted that Assessee had purchased 10,000 shares on 11.05.2009 @ 16.30 per share for a total amount of Rs. 1,63,000/- out of which Rs. 20,000/- was paid in cash and balance ....

He also filed various judgments of this Tribunal and also assessment records and the assessment order in the case of other assessees, wherein similar scrip has been accepted qua the same assessment year or subsequent assessment year. 7 7. On the other hand, learned Department Representative has strongly relied upon the order of the Assessing Officer and ld. CIT (A) and submitted that such a huge rise in the price itself shows that everything was not right and in some of the case, Investigation Wing Kolkata has found that scrip of M/s. CCL International Ltd. were used for providing accommodation entries by the brokers. Thus, the order of the Assessing Officer and ld. CIT (A) needs to be confirmed. 8. We have heard the rival submissions and also perused the relevant findings given in the impugned orders as well as mater referred to before us. As discussed above, assessee has purchased 10,000 shares on 11.05.2009 @ 16.30 per share for total amount of Rs. 1,63,000/- out of which Rs. 20,000/- was paid in cash and balance amount of Rs. 1,43,000/- through cheque which was duly reflected in the statement of affairs in the return of income filed for Assessme....

....also matter of record that the Department in other cases under scrutiny proceedings has accepted similar transaction of sale of shares of M/s. CCL International Ltd. 10. Nowhere the evidences filed by the assessee has been rebutted or any inquiry whatsoever has been conducted by the Assessing Officer or by the ld. CIT(A) to prove that assessee was involved in any clandestine manner for routing its own unaccounted money. If the assessee has filed the entire evidences relating to purchase which is mostly through cheque shown in the earlier years and also filed all the details of sale transactions and the shares which have been routed through Demat account and sold through stock exchange on a quoted price on that date, then onus shifts upon the Department to prove that all these evidences are only make believe documents and certain minimal inquiry is required to rebut all these evidences. As stated above, nowhere it has been found that assessee was in any manner found to be 10 beneficiary of any accommodation entry under any inquiry or investigation. Once all these transactions are duly proved by trading from stock exchange, then to hold the sale of shares as unexplained credit or as....
