Section 69A IT Act | Cash Withdrawals from Disclosed Accounts Cannot Be Taxed as Unexplained Money Without Evidence of Undisclosed Income: ITAT Surat
ITAT Surat holds that cash withdrawals from disclosed bank accounts cannot be treated as unexplained money under Section 69A of the Income Tax Act unless there is evidence linking such withdrawals to undisclosed income. The ruling underscores that mere cash withdrawals, without proof of unaccounted sources, do not justify tax additions, reinforcing the need for concrete evidence in best judgment assessments.
