....set Value Method, which is one of the prescribed methods for valuation of shares." The above grounds of appeals are independent of and without prejudice to each other. 7. Ld. AR of the assessee submitted filed written submissions which read as under :- 5. "It is further pertinent to mention that during the course of assessment proceeding, Ld. AO at Page 1 Para 2 observed that assessee company has not furnished the requisite documents to prove the identity and creditworthiness of the investors and the genuineness of the transaction. Against this it is necessary to state that during the course of assessment proceeding few of the documents could not be uploaded properly on the E filing portal due to technical glitches and therefore assessee was left with no other option except to re-file the evidences to avoid any controversy. Additional evidences filed before the Ld. CIT(A) were admitted during the course of appellate proceeding as observed by Ld. CIT(A) at para "5.1. During the course of appellate proceedings, the appellant had requested for admission of additional evidence under rule 46A and the same is admitted.". 6.

....long with the application for admission of additional evidences before the Ld. CIT(A). Against the evidences filed, the Ld. CIT(A)appreciated the documents by accepting the same, as sated at Para 5.1, page 15 of the order, but still dismissed the appeal of assessee for the reason that assessee has failed to produce the director of investor company during the course of assessment proceeding and merely on doubts dismissed the appeal of assessee. 8. Further from the perusal of the table placed above it is relevant to note that Rs. 5 Lacs was received from M/s RSM Construction against the share application money and share premium received by the assessee company in preceding years. (The same could be corroborated from the bank statement placed in the PB along with various documents). However, the shares were allotted by the assessee company in the relevant assessment year in concern. Hence, the investors from whom the share application money was received in preceding years, but to whom the shares were allotted in the current assessment year, their investment could not be added in the income of the assessee in the current AY. 9. In the Paper book filed before this Hon'ble Bench the ....

The creditworthiness of the share applicants, these companies are having sufficient capital and reserves to make the investment in the assessee company and the same could be evident from their audited financial statements. Thus, creditworthiness of the applicants is proved beyond doubt. Since, the monies have been directly paid to the assessee company by account payee checks out of the bank balances available in their respective bank accounts, genuineness of the transactions cannot be doubted. 12. It is relevant to state that the Ld. AO has recorded that some of the documents were not filed by the assessee in relation to aforesaid investors however Ld. CIT(A) appreciated the documents but did not agree despite there was nothing brought on record contrary to these documents. It is submitted that AY 2016-17 was the first year of assessment under faceless scheme and due to technical glitches sometimes despite uploading the documents it could not reach. The IT department also found faults and so upgraded their website later and various other issues are very well known....
