Chainrup Sampatram vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax,West ... on 9 October, 1953

12 In the case Chainrup Sampatram v. CIT [1953] reported in 24 ITR 481, the Hon'ble Supreme Court had laid down firstly, that profits do not arise out of valuation of closing stock. Secondly, that valuation of unsold stock at the close of the accounting period is a necessary part of the process of determining the trading results and it cannot be regarded as source of such profits. The addition made to the closing stock cannot be regarded as a source of profit which is nothing but a principle of balancing. The true purpose of crediting the value of unsold stock is to balance the cost entered on the other side of the account at the time of their purchase so that the cancelling out of entries relating to the same stock from both the sides of the accounts would leave only the transaction on which there has been actual sales to show the profit or loss actually realized. The revenue impact on such addition result in a revenue neutral situation. Whatever addition once made to the closing stock it is going to the opening stock in next year. In fact, there will not be any leakage of revenue.

145. It is the duty of the Assessing Officer to compute the income of the assessee in accordance with the method of accounting regularly employed by the assessee. The only exception to the legal position is provided in the first proviso to section 145 of the Income-tax Act, 1961, i e., where true profits cannot be deduced from the method of accounting employed by the assessee. If such method of accounting depicts a distorted picture of the profits of business carried on by the assessee, then the Assessing Officer can invoke the first proviso to section 145 even though such method is being employed consistently. But the powers of the Assessing Officer under the first proviso are not arbitrary and must be exercised in a judicious manner. The Supreme court decision in the case of Calcutta Co. Ltd. v.
