AY 2013-14. The issue pertaining to receipt of bogus share capital from the briefcase companies have been discussed at length by the Ld.

....ns of the Ld. AR that in the case of the first share applicant, i.e., M/s Third Eye Vinimay Pvt. Ltd. (TEVPL), the share applicant has duly surrendered its income by adopting to pay taxes under the Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme therefore, the amount received by the assessee company from TEVPL for Rs. 4,84,50,000/- cannot be treated as unexplained amount since the taxes pertaining to the source of such funds have already been offered and settled by the share applicant, when such addition was made in the case of share applicant by the Jurisdictional AO. The same funds which are already taxed in the hands of share applicant cannot be treated as unexplained income in the hands of assessee and to be taxed, if it is directed to do so, the same will be equal to double taxation. Under such facts and circumstances, since it is explicitly proved that the amount so received by the assessee company from M/s TEVPL was already taxed in the hands of investor company, the same has an explained source, thus, it can be safely held that the impugned amount is duly explained, thus, out of the scope of provisions of section 68.
