Assessee had indulged in a trading activity of stock exchange and as per AIR details with AO, assessee made transaction in stock exchanges with the same time the assessee had made payment to credit card companies as per the AIR details. During the course of assessment proceedings, assessee was asked to explain investments but even inspite of availing numerous opportunities, the assessee could not explain the investments. Thus, additions were made by AO. Held: Assessee miserably failed to explain the assessment before AO as well CIT(A). Therefore, AO as well as CIT(A) decided the orders against the assessee while making additions. No new facts or circumstances have been placed on record and the orders passed by the revenue authorities have also gone unrebutted, therefore, there was no reason to interfere into or to deviate from such findings of the authorities and thus, addition was rightly made by AO.
