The Tribunal held that , the assessee could not produce the parties before the Assessing Officer. The assessee volunteered The whereabouts of the investor companies were within the knowledge of the assessee. When such entities were not to be found at the addresses furnished by the assessee, it was incumbent upon the assessee to produce them before the Assessing Officer to prove their creditworthiness and genuineness of the transaction. The burden is shifted to the assessee. Accordingly it was held that the action of the Assessing Officer was legal and the inference drawn by him that the assessee had routed its own money in the books of account through the conduit of investor companies was justified.( AY.2010-11)
