Repercussions if there is failure to substantiate the purchase of import license by the assessee


Quick Summary
This Income Tax Appellate Tribunal case concerns an assessee who purchased an import licence for Rs. 2.66 Lacs from a supplier later deemed bogus. Despite providing a purchase bill, bank statements, and proof of licence utilisation, the Assessing Officer disallowed the expense. The Tribunal noted that the assessee failed to discharge the onus of substantiating the purchase from the specific supplier, leading to the disallowance.
