Burden of proof is on income tax department to prove that amount standing in the name of wife is belonging to assessee
Where an amount stood in the name of the assessee's wife, the onus of proof was not on the assessee but was on the Income-tax Department to show by, at least, same materials that the amount did not belong to the assessee's wife but to the assessee himself.
