Commissioner Of Income-Tax, West ... vs Durga Prasad More on 26 August, 1971
4. Next comes the Revenue's latter plea(s) that the tribunal has not
distinguished the factum of the issue(s) involved i.e. long/short-term capital
gains/losses based on entry operators' collusion with assessees. I find no force in
these arguments as well since the learned lower authorities have followed the very
reasoning without quoting any specific material against these assessees. And also
that the lower authorities had gone by identical reasoning of circumstantial
evidence as per case law Sumati dayal v. CIT 214 ITR 801(SC) and CIT v. Durga
Prasad More 82 ITR 540(SC) and not actual evidence. This tribunal has held, in
nutshell, that such a course of action of treating all categories of gains or losses; as
the case may be, must be based as actual evidence only. The same reasoning
applies mutatis mutandis in all these cases.
