.... assessment, however these documents were remanded as per Rule 46A(i) for fresh examination. The AO filed his remand report. The contents of remand report is reproduced in para 5.3 of impugned order. The ld. CIT(A) extracted the contents of remand report, wherein the AO accepted that the detail furnished by the assessee have been verified and found to be correct. The Ld. CIT(A) on considering such report recorded that in the remand report the document submitted by the assessee were accepted as genuine. Thus, the AO was not justified in completing the assessment ex-parte and to the bank statement under section 144 as the assessee is duly complied with hearing notice and submitted the required details asked for.

I have also perused the copy of remand report furnished by the AO to the ld CIT(A) during the first appellate stage. I find that the AO made addition of aggregate of purchases of Rs. 9,00,025/- shown by the assessee from both the parties that is Riya Enterprises and Divine Packaging filed by assessee. The AO made addition by disallowing the expenses of purchases from both the parties in assessment order passed under section 144, by taking view that the assessee failed to produce copy of bills with delivery challan and transportation details in support of purchase transaction. I find that before ld CIT(A), the assessee filed ....
