CIT(A) has adopted the GP rate of 8% as against 10% applied by the Assessing Officer relying on the different case laws as per the impugned order. When the AR was asked to justify the claim of G.P. rate of 7.46% shown appellant as against the application of the 8% GP rate by the ld. CIT(A) in terms of trading results as per the past history of the assessee’s own case or similar case of a civil contractor on parity of facts, he could not file any documentary evidence to substantiate in rebuttal to application of gross rate of 8% by the ld. CIT(A). Accordingly, the counsel, in the virtual hearing before the bench stated that he is not willing to carry out such exhaustive exercises of collecting documentary evidences to substantiate such a claim and rather wish to withdraw the appeal.
