Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's statutory appeal was based on an erroneous factual finding regarding the submission of necessary bank statements. The Court found that the appellant had indeed produced relevant statements before the Commissioner of Income-tax, which the High Court failed to acknowledge. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and remitted the matter for fresh consideration, emphasizing the importance of the additional material in the decision-making process.
