It is true that the income of the assessee was arrived on an estimated basis. However, assessee in its original return of income had shown only income from salary and income from house property and never revealed that it was doing any business, much less a civil contract business. It also did not show any income from such business. It was only when the ld. AO brought to the notice of the assessee the credits in its bank acc....
