Income Tax-Officer, Ward-1(2)(1), ... vs Amit Jayantibhai Patel, Vadodara on 27 February, 2026
In view of the above, I am of the considered opinion that the in the impugned
case the appellant has very well discharge his onus to explain source of cash
and the appellant has also offered the brokerage income to tax. The Ld. AO
has not brought any alternate source of cash belonging to appellant which is
contradictory to appellant's explanation. The cash book filed by the appellant
very well explains the source of cash and without rejecting books of account of
the appellant with valid reason, treating cash deposit as unexplained money
I.T.A No. 1957/Ahd/2024 A.Y. 2017-18 4
ITO Vs. Amit Jayantibhai Patel
is not justified. Thus, invoking section 69A does not appear to be correct in the
underlined case and the addition carried out by the Ld. AO is being deleted.
