Facts Summary

The assessee, Dipak Kumar Majumder, filed his return of income declaring income of Rs. 4,22,000/-. The Assessing Officer made an addition of Rs. 14,00,000/- claiming that such amount of cash deposit was made in the Bank account of the assessee. The assessee explained that the cash deposit was made out of sale proceeds of cars/vehicles and cash withdrawn for the purpose of his daughter's marriage ceremony. However, the Assessing Officer did not consider these submissions and made the addition. The assessee then appealed before the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), who dismissed the appeal stating there was no supporting document or evidence in support of the cash deposit. Aggrieved by this, the assessee preferred an appeal before the Tribunal.
