The Assessee filed revised return wherein exemption claimed under section 10(38) was withdrawn and entire income was offered for tax as income from other sources. During scrutiny proceedings the assessee claimed that revised return was filed under duress during survey and claim made under section 10(38) in original return was valid. On the basis of Investigation report on the group companies the Assessing Officer denied the exemption claimed under section 10(38) of the Act and treated same as bogus on the ground that receipts constituted accommodation entries. On appeal the Tribunal considering the details of purchase and sales were placed before Assessing Officer along with contract notes for purchase and sale, demat account and bank statement allowed the claim of the assessee. Tribunal also held that no incriminating material were found during survey and statements relied upon were recorded much before date of survey conducted at premises of assessee. On appeal by the Revenue, High Court affirmed the order of the Tribunal. CBDT No. 286/98/2013, dated 09-01-2014. (AY. 2014-15 2015-16)
