The present appeal has been f i led by the assessee against  the orders of ld. CIT (A)-27, New Delhi dated 30.12.2015.

3. Perusal of various statement of Shri Atul Khandelwal, CA which were recorded during the survey proceedings unambiguously indicates that Sh.

Ltd. in ITA No. 1177/Del/2016 vide order dated 12.12.2019, we find that the addition made in the hands of M/s Sidhvandan Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. of the same amount has been deleted after considering the fact that the appeal of the assessee has been dismissed by the Tribunal after considering the fact that M/s Sidhvandan Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. has received loan from the assessee and the loan repayment has been made leading to an indisputable conclusion that the amount originally belongs to the assessee.

5. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purpose.
