....12. In the result, the appeal is dismissed.'' 5. During the course of hearing, the ld.AR of the assessee submitted that the lower authorities have erred in confirming the addition of Rs. 37,78,270/- and further submitted that lower authorities have taxed the capital gain on account of sale of shares and resultantly the capital gain which had arisen in A.Y. 2008-09 and deduction claimed u/s 54of the Act. Thus the capital gain which relates to A.Y. 2008-09 cannot be taxed in A.Y. 2014-15 merely on the technical reasons. To this effect, the ld.AR has submitted following written submission. ''1. From the facts stated above the two issues arising in the present appeal is whether the amount of Rs. 37,78,270/- can be considered unexplained only because the system generated return for AY 2008-09 is not reflecting the long term capital gain and whether the amount from sale of shares on which the said gain is earned in AY 2008-09 can be treated as unexplained income for AY 2014-15. 2.

....om the system perfectly shows the capital (APB 44) not only that deduction claimed u/s 54F of the Act is also reflected. Thus, there is no fault. Not only that the transaction of capital gain and is subsequent investment in A.Y. 2008-09 how can be taxed in A.Y. 2014-15 merely on the reasons that on line transaction does not show capital gain. The ld.AR of the assessee has filed an affidavit dated 24- 10-2016 placed before the AO and the ld. CIT(A) wherein she has confirmed the fact on oath about the capital gain and deduction claimed u/s 54F of the Act. She has further stated that she is assessed to tax since 1998 and since then no such behavior is observed.

CIT(A) held that the assessee has failed to explain as to how the efiled return could not have captured the details of capital gain and claim of deduction u/s 54F. In fact, the data of e-filed return is showing that the long term capital gain filled up by the appellant was blank. The claim is proven to be false from the fact that the data relating to other heads of income are showing correct figures. In a computerized system driven environment, it is not possible that an assessee would feed something and the IT department system would capture something else. Moreover, in the case of e-filed return, immediately after submitting return, the electronic copy of the return so submitted is available for download. In normal course, the appellant would have noticed from the downloaded return that the return is not showing correct information and in that case the appellant could have revised the return.
