Assessing Officer is telling to add 20 lacs as income. what reply should be given to him so that he does not add the amount to income.

If the AO is going to add the difference to income you will be taxed twice for twenty lakhs, even though if accounted properly your income would have been less by twenty lakhs. Pointed out these factors to the AO
