....n u/s 54B of the Act at Rs. 6,17,445/- but no evidence placed in support thereof before both the lower authorities. Even during the course of hearing before the Tribunal assessee has not made any submissions with regard to claim of deduction u/s 54B of the Act at Rs. 6,17,445/-. 13. In these given facts and circumstances of the case there seems no reason to interfere in the finding of Ld. CIT(A) confirming the addition. Ground no.3 raised by the assessee deserves to be dismissed. 14. As a result, Cross appeal for A.Y. 2012-13 stands dismissed. Now we take cross appeal for A.Y. 2013-14 15. We have heard the rival contentions and perused the record placed before us. The following grounds of appeal have been raised. ITANo.253/Ind/2017Assessee's appeal for A.Y. 2013-14 i.

....f assessee to be computed 2.16% of the total turnover. However, this finding as well as finding for A.Y. 2012-13 should not be taken as basis in the subsequent years and in case similar issue comes in future it should be decided on the basis of facts and figure for the year under appeal. In the result this common issue of estimation of net profit raised by both assessee and revenue stands dismissed. 19. Now we take ground No.3 of assessee's appeal for A.Y. 2013-14 for addition of unexplained unsecured loan u/s 68 of the Act at Rs. 47,77,000/-. 20. We have heard the rival contentions and perused the record placed before us. During the course of assessment proceeding Ld. AO observed that a sum of Rs. 47,77,000/- has been taken as unsecured loan from six different parties. Assessee was unable to furnish any evidence to establish the identity, creditworthiness and genuineness in respect of loan creditors. Addition was made u/s 68 of the Act by the Ld. AO. Thereafter before the ld. CIT(A) assessee could file confirmation of account but no other satisfactory evidence was filed due to which addition of Rs. 47,77,000/- made u/s 68 of the Act was confirmed by Ld. CIT(A) observing as follo....

.... observed that the assessee has purchased a flat at Shehnai Residency of Rs. 60,19,920/- and called for the copy of purchases documents but the query remain unexplained. Thereafter before the Ld. CIT(A) assessee filed the details along with proof of taking house loan of Rs. 42,50,000/- for the purchase of flat. Ld. Departmental Representative (DR) failed to rebut the finding of the Ld. CIT(A). 25. We therefore, in the given facts and circumstances of the case, are of the view that the alleged purchase of flat of Rs. 60,19,200/- cannot be categorized under the unexplained investments u/s 69 of the Act as the same have been recorded in the regular books of accounts along with housing loan taken for financing the purchase of the flat. No interference is therefore, called for in the finding of the Ld. CIT(A) deleting the addition of Rs. 60,19,920/-. Accordingly, ground no.4 of Revenue's appeal stands dismissed. 26. Now we take up Assessee's appeal in ITANo.29/Ind/2017 & Revenue appeal in ITANo.53/Ind/2017 for A.Y. 2012-13. The following grounds of appeal have been raised by the assessee and Revenue: ITANo.29/Ind/2017 by Assessee "That the Ld. CIT(A) erred in law and facts of the....
