  15. Direct Tax ·Kerala High Court · 22 Oct 2013
    Disallowance of Commission paid - Increase the commission from 1% to 2.5% - AO had permitted commission in the absence of any other evidence to prove the same at 1% of the total turnover taking into account the commission paid by similar agencies. It is not in dispute that none of the vouchers produced by the assessee was signed by any of the persons who had received the commission. Therefore, normally such amounts are to be added to the income of the assessee. For deletion of such income, necessarily evidence has to be adduced. No evidence worth appreciating was available other than a general contention that commission had been paid. Assessing Officer permitted allowance of 1% as commission and there is no any reason for the appellate authority to have increased the said commission to 2.5%. Such an approach has been made purely based on surmises.
