JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD learned Counsel for the appellant and also the learned Counsel for the respondent.

THE contention of Shri Anuroop Singhi, learned Counsel for the revenue is that in the first case, even the the estimated disclosed income according to the appellant was Rs. 92 lacs, whereas the respondent -assessee admitted the income of only Rs. 12 lacs and, therefore, at the premature stage, jewellery/ornaments could not be ordered to be released.
