  III. Direct Taxes Case Law: 

1.  Shantivijay Jewels Ltd. Vs. DCIT, I.T.A. No. 1045/Mum/2016, Date of Pronouncement: 13.04.2018, ITAT - Mumbai

Issue
Where one of the supplier admitted providing accommodation entry would lead to conclusion that purchase made by the assessee from him is also bogus.

Held:- No

Brief Facts
The assessee-company engaged in business of manufacturing of jewellery filed its return of income declaring the total income of Rs.60.56 lakhs for AY-2011-12. Invoking provisions of 133(6) the Act Ld.AO called for details of purchases from three parties controlled and managed by a single group to which one of the supplier admitted providing accommodation entries. The Ld.AO straightway proceeded to add Rs.14.99cr to income of assessee rejecting documents filed to prove genuineness of sales. On appeal the Ld. CIT(A) restricted the addition to 12.5% of purchases being the VAT evaded on such purchases by relying on judgement in the case of Nikunj Eximp Enterprises (372 ITR 619). Being aggrieved, the assessee has filed an appeal before Hon’ble ITAT.

Held
The Hon’ble ITAT while considering the fact that assessee did not sell goods locally, the Ld.AO not doubting the sales of assessee and suppliers admitting sale of goods by filing affidavits held that there is a subtle difference between issuing bogus bills and providing accommodation entries and the supplier had admitted of issuing bogus bills but nowhere on record he had admitted of providing accommodation entries specifically to the assessee. Moreover, suppliers were paying VAT and were filing their returns of income. Therefore, we are of the opinion that Ld. CIT was not justified in partially confirming the addition.
The appeal was held in favour of the assessee and against the revenue.
