S. 145 : Method of accounting–Stock valuation-Cash credit limits-Discrepancy in stock as per books of account of assessee and that shown in bank statements–Deletion of addition is held to be justified.

AO made addition to assessee’s income on account of discrepancy in stock as per books of account of assessee and that shown in bank statements. Tribunal deleted said addition by taking a view that assessee had tendency to show higher value of stock in bank statements in order to enjoy higher cash credit limit. High Court upheld order passed by Tribunal.
