As per records, revised return of income declaring total income of Rs. 5,93,510\/-was filed on 30.09.2012.A survey u\/s 133A of the Act was conducted on 28.11.2014. Thereafter, notice u\/s 148 of the 1961 Act was issued and served upon the assessee. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The assessment was completed after making addition for unsecured loan at Rs. 17,00,000\/-and income assessed at Rs. 22,93,510\/-. Subsequently ld. PCIT-17, Kolkata called for assessment records and after examining the same, issued a show cause notice u\/s. 263 of the 1961 Act. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">After following the required procedures, the PCIT came to conclusion that relevant issues relating to computation of gross profit, capitalization of the amount of Rs. 16,00,000\/-, genuineness of unsecured loans and sundry creditors needs to be re- examined and re- computed. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Aggrieved with the impugned order, the assessee preferred appeal before this Tribunal. None appeared on behalf of the assessee. However, a paper book dated 27.12.2019 containing 48 pages was placed on record contained written submissions, details of records and the submissions filed by the assessee before the ld. AO as well as ld. PCIT.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Contentions<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The assessee challenged the <\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">assumption of jurisdiction by ld. PCIT u\/s 263 of the Act and also submitted that all the issues raised by ld. PCIT were duly verified by the ld. AO in the course of the assessment and, therefore, the order u\/s 263 of the Act is bad in law and against the principle of res judicata and natural justice.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Observations<\/span><\/b> <b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">and Conclusion<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Upon perusing the facts and the contentions, it was observed the assessee made submissions with regard to difference in gross profit, source of capital interest, reconciliation of gross profit with impounded book, a note on unsecured loan with inability to provide details of the loan. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Itwas also noted that during the year under appeal, the AO was required to examine the unsecured loan taken by the assessee. However, AO only gave reference to the balances of unsecured loan appearing on 31-03-2013 and comparing the same with the balances for FY 2011-12. This overlooks the fact that various unsecured loans were taken during this period.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Tribunal also noted that the assessee duly explained the source of capital addition in the account of the proprietorship concern which ld. AO has examined properly and the source of addition to capital account stands duly explained. The Tribunal noted that there is no reason to doubt the genuineness of the sundry creditors appearing in the balance sheet as on 31-03-2012. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Thus, regarding the issues of unsecured loans, calculation of gross profit and addition of fixed assets, the Tribunal upheld the decision by the PCIT to direct the A.O. for doing the needful. \u00a0it was held that the action of ld. PCIT invoking jurisdiction u\/s 263 of the Act and holding the assessment order dated 03.02.2016 as erroneous insofar as prejudicial to the interests of the Revenue is partly sustained in view of the observations made herein above. The appeal of the assessee was partly allowed. \u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">[<span style=\"color: #800000;\"><em>Debdas Ghosal <\/em>v. <em>ITO<\/em><\/span>,<em><span style=\"color: #800000;\"> I.T.A.No.:993\/Kol\/2018 <\/span><\/em><\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><em>, decided on<\/em> 24-05-2022<\/span>]<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Appearances\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Respondent: D.K.
