113 (SC), dismissed the SLP filed by the department against
the judgement of the Hon'ble Bombay High Court in the
matter of 'Commissioner of Income Tax Vs. Orchid Industries
(P.) Ltd', 88 taxmann.com 502 (Bombay), wherein it was
held that the assessee had produced on record documents to
establish the genuineness of the party, such as PAN of all
the creditors along with the confirmation and their bank
statements showing payment of the said amount. The
assessee had also produced the entire record regarding the
issuance of shares, i.e., allotment of shares to these parties,
their share application forms, allotment letters and share
certificates, as also the books of account. The balance-sheet
and profit and loss account of those persons disclosed that
they had sufficient funds in their accounts for investing in
the shares of the assessee. It was held that in view of this
voluminous documentary evidence, the only fact that those
persons had not appeared before the Assessing Officer would
not negate the case of the assessee; and that therefore, the
addition was liable to be deleted.
