1 - 10 of 80 (0.47 seconds)Sumati Dayal vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax, Bangalore on 28 March, 1995
The
learned assessing officer relied upon the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court
in case of Sumati Dayal vs. CIT, 125 CTR 124. The learned authorized
representative vehemently opposed the same and stated that long-term capital
gain were originally disclosed by the assessee in his return of income for earlier
assessment years for assessment year 2010 - 11 and 2011 - 12, which were
assessed under section 143 (3) of the Income tax act. Therefore, it is not the case
of the revenue that there are no positive evidences produced by the assessee.
Even in those cases, the assessee has produced complete details of the purchase,
share applications, payment by cheque, sale on a stock exchange, receipt of sale
consideration and most importantly the holding period of those shares in the
balance sheet of the assessee's which were accepted by the revenue for all those
years. He therefore submitted that the theory of preponderance of probabilities
invoked by the learned assessing officer is merely a conjecture and surmise. He
further stated that when originally the assessees are assessed under section 143
(3) of the act, long-term capital gain were accepted after detailed enquiries, now
it cannot be said that the capital gain earned by the assessee is to be taxed u/s 68
of the act on the principles of preponderance of the probabilities. He further
submitted that it was argued before the bench in appeal from earlier years that
no incriminating evidences were found during the course of search. The order is
awaited. He further stated that the preponderance of probabilities would come
into play only when the basic test of direct and factual evidences fails. He stated
that in the present case the complete evidences have been placed by the assessee
before the revenue authorities, they are not found to be false but only allegation

has been made that transactions are sham. He further stated that the decision
relied upon by the learned AO of honorable Supreme Court is quite distinct on
its fact. On careful analysis of the evidences placed before us, findings rendered
by the lower authorities, we proceed to consider the taxability of the long-term
capital gain earned by the assessee under section 68 of the income tax act
whether in situations like this, one may fall into realm of "preponderance of
probability" where there are many probable factors, some in favour of the
assessee and some may go against the assessee. However, the probable factors
have to be weighed on material facts so collected. Here, in this case, material
facts strongly indicate a probability supported by the evidences produced by the
assessee that assessee has earned long-term capital gain on sale of the shares.
The another very strong probability arises is that assessee has introduced its
unaccounted money in the guise of profit on sale of shares holding it is a long
term capital gain and showing it is a tax exempt income. The probable factors
could have gone against the assessee, only if -

On the other hand, the AO has merely relied upon the statement of third person
recorded behind the back of the assessee and without giving any opportunity to the
assessee to cross examine the person before using these statements against the
assessee. The ld. AR has submitted that despite specific request opportunity of cross
examination was not provided, which is against the ratio of decision of Hon'ble
Supreme Court in the case of Andman Timber Industries vs. CCE (324) ELT
641, wherein Hon'ble Court has stated that not allowing the opportunity to cross

examine the witness though the statement of those witness were made the basis of
impugned order, is a serious flaw which makes the order a nullity is as much as it
amounted to violation of principle of natural justice. The AO has ignored this
binding decision of Hon'ble Supreme Court. On this issue, the Ld. CIT(A) has placed
heavy reliance on the decision of the Swati Bajaj of hon'ble Calcutta High Court and
has highlighted the relevant portion of the judgement The assessees have not been
shown to be prejudiced on account of non-furnishing of the investigation report or
non-production of the persons for cross examination as the assessee has not
specifically indicated as to how he was prejudiced, coupled with the fact as
admitted by the revenue, the statements do not indict the assessee and submitted
that the judgement of Andaman Timber is not applicable to the facts of the case.
