....he returns filed by the assessee that was produced before them and thereafter arrived at a proper conclusion. Further the Ld.Revenue Authorities had not taken any coercive action for the alleged fraud committed by the assessee. In this situation we can neither hold the matter in favour of the Revenue nor the assessee. It is pertinent to mention that on the identical facts in the case of the assessee's related parties Smt. Renu Sarin in IT(SS)A No.17/Chny/2014 vide order dated 20.03.2019, Shri Rakesh Sarin in IT(SS)A No.66/Chny/2007 vide order dated 11.03.2019, Shri Akshay Sarin in IT(SS)A No.18/Chny/2014 vide order dated 28.03.2019 and M/s. B.R. Sarin & Sons in IT(SS)A No.11/Chny/2014 vide order dated 01.04.2019 also we had expressed similar view. Considering these facts we are of the view that the addition made by the Ld.AO for Rs. 14,28,240/- in the block assessment is devoid of merits because there is no conclusive finding by the Revenue that the assessee had not filed its return of income for the assessment years 1997-98 to 2003-04. Hence we hereby direct the Ld.AO to delete the addition made by the Ld.AO for Rs. 14,28,240/- in the block assessment. 5. Ground No.2(ii) : Additi....

....ef by deleting the addition on this issue. Since in the case of the assessee also the Ld.Revenue Authorities had failed to examine the evidence produced by the assessee, we are of the considered view that the addition made is not sustainable. Moreover at this stage, it would be impracticable to remit the matter back to the file of Ld.AO for de-nova consideration as the matter relates to the block period 1997-98 to 2002-03 wherein the facts had occurred beyond 20 years ago. Therefore we hereby direct the Ld.AO to delete the addition made for Rs. 84,53,375/-, Rs. 45,75,000/- and Rs. 4,27,500/- towards investment in shares, bonds, patras, etc., RBI bonds and HDFC Standard Life Insurance.

Sarin & Sons HUF holds good in the case of the assessee also and accordingly we hereby direct the Ld.AO to delete the addition of Rs. 4,500/- towards investment in shares, Rs. 50,000/- towards investment in RBI Bonds, Rs. 25,000/- towards investment in various UTI/IDBI and HDFC Relief bonds, Rs. 20,000/- towards investment i....

....ing to Rs. 4,72,112/-. 9. Ground No.2(vi) : Addition of Rs. 25,50,000/- towards unaccounted pro-notes:- During the course of search certain pro-notes were found in the assessee's premises and since no explanation could be obtained from the karta of the HUF Shri Rakesh Sarin who was unavailable at that time and the manager who was present, the Ld.AO added the aggregate of the same as the undisclosed investment of the assessee because they were not accounted in the books of accounts. On the identical issue and facts, this Bench of the Tribunal in the case of the assessee's related parties Smt. Renu Sarin in IT(SS)A No.17/Chny/2014, Shri Rakesh Sarin in IT(SS)A No.66/Chny/2007, Shri Akshay Sarin in IT(SS)A No.18/Chny/2014 and M/s. B.R.
