ITO [2020] 182 ITD 246 (Delhi)(Trib.) held that, where the assessee had deposited cash in its account and explained that sum was received as advance against sale of agricultural land however, failed to show creditworthiness of depositors against sale of land, addition under section 68 was justified.

Burden is on the assessee to prove that the cash deposited was from the sale of agricultural land
