This appeal is directed against the order of the Income<\/p>\n<p>Tax Appellate Tribunal dated 23.12.2008, whereby it dismissed<\/p>\n<p>the appeal, being ITA No.5028\/Del\/2007, filed by the appellant<\/p>\n<p>against the order passed by Commissioner                 of Income<\/p>\n<p>Tax(Appeals), in respect of assessment of the respondent, for<\/p>\n<p>the assessment year 2004-2005.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.            The assessee firm, which is engaged in the business<\/p>\n<p>of travel and tourism, as a tour operator arranging inland tour<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">ITA No.445\/2010                                              Page 1 of 7<\/span><br \/>\n of foreign tourists visiting India, filed its return declaring<\/p>\n<p>taxable income of Rs.42,53,536\/- for the assessment year<\/p>\n<p>2004-2005.           The net profit shown in the return was at 7.93%<\/p>\n<p>of the receipts.         Since the Assessing Officer felt that the net<\/p>\n<p>profit reported by the assessee was on lower side, he picked up<\/p>\n<p>the expenses relating to seven tours organized by the<\/p>\n<p>respondent. On a consideration of the accounts furnished by<\/p>\n<p>the assessee, the Assessing Officer felt that the assessee could<\/p>\n<p>not demonstrate any pattern as to uniformity of rates etc. and<\/p>\n<p>the expenses debited in the tour Ledger did not reconcile with<\/p>\n<p>the tour itinerary. He, therefore, rejected the book results in<\/p>\n<p>terms of Section 145(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and<\/p>\n<p>assessed the income @ 12% of gross foreign receipts. Net rate<\/p>\n<p>of 10% was applied by the Assessing Officer, to determine the<\/p>\n<p>income from Indian business receipts.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.                In the appeal filed by the assessee, Commissioner of<\/p>\n<p>Income Tax(Appeals) noted that not only the notices issued<\/p>\n<p>under Sections 142(1), 143(2) were complied with by the<\/p>\n<p>assessee, all the Books of Account and vouchers etc. were also<\/p>\n<p>produced before the Assessing Officer, for scrutiny by him. He<\/p>\n<p>also found that for all intents and purposes the assessment<\/p>\n<p>was complete under Section 143(3), though the Assessing<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">ITA No.445\/2010                                                Page 2 of 7<\/span><br \/>\n Officer purported to act under Section 144 of the Act. It was<\/p>\n<p>further noted by CIT(A) that the assessee had not suppressed<\/p>\n<p>any part of receipts and all the receipts were properly vouched.<\/p>\n<p>He also found that the receipts as well as the expenses of each<\/p>\n<p>tour were separately accounted for in the ledger account, and<\/p>\n<p>even gross profit arising in respect of each tour was properly<\/p>\n<p>ascertainable. He felt that the order passed by the Assessing<\/p>\n<p>Officer was based on presumptions and conjectures, without<\/p>\n<p>bringing any positive evidence on record.                  He, therefore,<\/p>\n<p>directed the Assessing Officer to accept the income returned by<\/p>\n<p>the appellant, after allowing deduction under Section 80 HHD.<\/p>\n<p>4.                The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal noted that<\/p>\n<p>though one reason assigned by the Assessing Officer for<\/p>\n<p>rejecting the Books of Account was that the net profit disclosed<\/p>\n<p>by the assessee was on the lower side considering the line of<\/p>\n<p>business in which it was engaged, no specific reasons of higher<\/p>\n<p>profit having been declared by any similarly situated assessee<\/p>\n<p>had not been found by the Assessing Officer.                The Tribunal<\/p>\n<p>accepted the contention of the assessee that considering the<\/p>\n<p>nature of business of the assessee, a formal agreement with<\/p>\n<p>the    foreign       principal   was   not   imperative.     As   regards<\/p>\n<p>reconciliation of the tour expenses with the tour itinerary, it<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">ITA No.445\/2010                                                   Page 3 of 7<\/span><br \/>\n was held that the itinerary was tentative for the purpose of<\/p>\n<p>fixing the charges but the same could be changed depending<\/p>\n<p>upon various factors, including the number of days of the<\/p>\n<p>entire tour, period of stay in a particular place, the quality of<\/p>\n<p>hotel services provided to the tourists and frequent travel of<\/p>\n<p>tourists from one place to another. The Tribunal felt that the<\/p>\n<p>exact bill could be raised only after execution of the tour<\/p>\n<p>programme and, therefore, could not have been compared with<\/p>\n<p>the agreement or contract note with the foreign principal in<\/p>\n<p>order to ascertain the correct income of the assessee.<\/p>\n<p>5.            Section 145(3) of Act provides for assessment in the<\/p>\n<p>manner prescribed in Section 144 of the Act where the<\/p>\n<p>Assessing Officer is not satisfied about the correctness or<\/p>\n<p>completeness of the accounts of the assessee or where either<\/p>\n<p>the method of accounting provided in sub-Section (1) or the<\/p>\n<p>accounting standards as notified under sub-Section (2) having<\/p>\n<p>been regularly followed by the assessee. It is not the case of<\/p>\n<p>the Revenue that the assessee had not followed either cash or<\/p>\n<p>mercantile system of accounting. It is also not the case of the<\/p>\n<p>Revenue that the Central Government had notified any<\/p>\n<p>particular accounting standards to be followed by tour<\/p>\n<p>operators.        Hence, the second part of sub-Section (3) of<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">ITA No.445\/2010                                            Page 4 of 7<\/span><br \/>\n Section 145 does not apply to this case.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.           The Assessing Officer has not pointed out any specific<\/p>\n<p>defect or discrepancy in the Account Books maintained by the<\/p>\n<p>assessee.         Admittedly, the assessee had been maintaining<\/p>\n<p>regular Books of Accounts, which were duly audited by an<\/p>\n<p>independent Chartered Accountant.         As noted by CIT(A), the<\/p>\n<p>financial results were fully supported by the assessee with<\/p>\n<p>vouchers and the Books of Account were complete and correct<\/p>\n<p>in all respects. The accounts which are regularly maintained<\/p>\n<p>in the course of business and are duly audited, free from any<\/p>\n<p>qualification by the auditors, should normally be taken as<\/p>\n<p>correct unless there are adequate reasons to indicate that they<\/p>\n<p>are incorrect or unreliable. The onus is upon the Revenue to<\/p>\n<p>show that either the Books of Accounts maintained by the<\/p>\n<p>assessee were incorrect or incomplete or method of accounting<\/p>\n<p>adopted by him was such that true profits of the assessee<\/p>\n<p>cannot be deduced therefrom.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.           The question as to whether the accounts produced by<\/p>\n<p>the assessee were defective\/incomplete or not is a question of<\/p>\n<p>fact.      The Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeals) as well as<\/p>\n<p>Income Tax Appellate Tribunal have found that the accounts<\/p>\n<p>maintained by the respondent were neither defective nor<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">ITA No.445\/2010                                            Page 5 of 7<\/span><br \/>\n incomplete. Even the Assessing Officer has not found any fault<\/p>\n<p>as such with the system of accounting being followed by the<\/p>\n<p>assessee. The Tribunal which is the final fact finding authority<\/p>\n<p>has held that considering the nature of the business of the<\/p>\n<p>assessee, it was not obligatory to enter into a formal agreement<\/p>\n<p>with the foreign principal.          Hence, non-production of formal<\/p>\n<p>agreements with the foreign principals would not render the<\/p>\n<p>accounts of the assessee incomplete and would not give<\/p>\n<p>justification to the Assessing Officer to reject them under<\/p>\n<p>Section 145(3) of the Act. Similarly, the explanation given by<\/p>\n<p>the assessee for the tour expenses not reconciling with tour<\/p>\n<p>itinerary having been accepted, both by Commissioner of<\/p>\n<p>Income Tax(Appeals) as well as by the Tribunal, the accounts<\/p>\n<p>of the assessee cannot be said to be defective on this ground<\/p>\n<p>and, therefore, could not have been rejected. If any particular<\/p>\n<p>expense claimed by the assessee remained unverified, the<\/p>\n<p>Assessing         Officer   could   have   disallowed   that   particular<\/p>\n<p>expense. But, that by itself cannot be a ground for rejection of<\/p>\n<p>accounts as a whole under Section 145(3) of the Act.                  The<\/p>\n<p>finding of fact recorded by the ITAT has not been shown to be<\/p>\n<p>perverse, and hence cannot be interfered with by this Court.<\/p>\n<p>8.            For the reasons given in the preceding paragraphs,<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">ITA No.445\/2010                                                  Page 6 of 7<\/span><br \/>\n no substantial question of law arises for our consideration.<\/p>\n<p>The appeal is, accordingly, dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                         (V.K.
