It is found that the Assessment Order has been passed u/s 144 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The AO made addition of Rs.4,17,940/- on account of sale of shares worth Rs.4,17,917/- which have been purchased earlier for an amount of Rs.4,45,575/-. The assessee has incurred loss of Rs.27,634/- in this transaction. This loss was neither claimed by the assessee nor set off against any income. The source of investment is not in dispute. The assessee has conceded in assessment before the AO that he has neither made any material profit nor incurred sizeable loss out of those transactions and so the reason as advanced for not accepting the genuineness of the transactions of the assessee is ex facie wrong. Keeping in view that zero tax implication in the specific facts of this case, the addition wrongly made on account of the entire sale receipts of Rs. 4,17,940/- is hereby deleted. 4. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed. Order Pronounced in the Open Court on 20/06/2023. Sd/- (Dr. B. R. R.
