On that basis, it is sought to be canvassed that the manner in which CIT(A) has deleted the addition, based on the ratio of the judgment of the Hon'ble Bombay High Court in the case of All Cargo Global Logistics Ltd., 374 ITR 645 (Bom), deserves to be affirmed. 4. The ld. CIT-DR has not controverted the factual matrix asserted by the learned representative, but pointed out that there was a contrary view also, as manifested by the judgments of the Hon'ble Kerala High Court in the case of CIT vs. St. Francis Clay Decor Tiles, 385 ITR 624 (Kerala), CIT vs. Dr. P.

Quite clearly, the reference to the statement of employees, etc. collected at the time of search, which has been referred to in the stated Grounds of appeal before us, has already been considered by our co-ordinate Bench in its order dated 02.05.2017 (supra) and it has been held that the same does not justify the inclusion of impugned addition in an assessment made u/s 153A r.w.s. 143(3) of the Act having regard to the judgment of the Hon'ble Bombay High Court in the c....
