The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal Delhi Bench: ‘F’ New Delhi Shri Rajeev Gupta, Delhi (Appellant) vs. ACIT, Central Circle-II, New Delhi (Respondent) Coram: Shri J. S. Reddy, Accountant Member and Shri C. M. Garg, Judicial Member
Facts of the case:
The Commissioner(Appeals) considered the fact that the assessee and his family owned seven luxurious vehicles and other valuable assets and also the fact that the assessee had not furnished the details sought by the AO such as, area of the house, number of rooms, details of electricity/water expenses, copy of passport and details of insurance and medical policies etc. CIT(A) noted that it was quite surprising that the appellant who was living with 7 adult family members in a mansion at Prithvi Raj Road, New Delhi and driving best of the vehicles, could meet their household expenses in approx. Rs.32,000 p.m. during the assessment year 2002-03 and within the range of Rs.47,000 p.m . in assessment year 2006-07 and within the range of Rs.80,000 approx in assessment years 2007-08 and 2008-09.
He further noted that during the appellate proceeding, the appellant was asked to provide the following details so as to ascertain their household expenses: On the other hand, the assessee challenged the jurisdiction of the AO to making additions u/s 153A of the Act for the assessment years 2003-04 to 2007-08 on the ground that no incriminating material was found during the course of search and as the assessments for these assessment years have abated and hence the addition is bad in law. Tribunal upheld the order of the CIT(A) and dismissed the appeal.
