accepted by the AO in the year of its acquisition and thereafter until the same were sold. The
off market transaction for purchase of shares is not illegal as was held by the decision of Co-
ordinate Bench of this Tribunal in the case of Dolarrai Hemani vs. ITO in ITA No. 19/Kol/2014
dated 2.12.2016 and the decision by Hon'ble Calcutta High court in PCIT Vs. BLB Cables &
