It shows that your accounts are not correct and secondly they conclude that at that moment a sale of Rs5laks are suppressed and further make an estimation of such evasion throughout the year.They may add at least double of that amount to the taxable amount.

14 April 2012 Mr A Kumar,
There should be a police complaint,before the date of IT inspection to support your claim.However, if you proove your absense to the IT authorities,they may show some sympathy. Destruction of damaged property,with some accounting adjustments and cooperation of IT dept is one of the ways. You can claim that some stock was destroyed due their old and worn out condition.....MJK
