Summary
- The ITAT Delhi has ruled that the addition of ā¹27.83 lakh as unexplained cash credit under Section 68 was unjustified without specific evidence linking the assessee to price rigging.
- Ruchi Jain's long-term capital gains (LTCG) from Kappac Pharma Ltd. were initially challenged by the AO based on a general Investigation Wing report, but no direct nexus was established.
- The Tribunal noted that Jain's husband had a similar transaction accepted as genuine, reinforcing the need for consistent treatment in identical cases.
- This decision underscores that mere classification as a "penny stock" does not negate genuine transactions without concrete evidence of manipulation.
