2 ITA No. 115/JAB/2023 Shobha Singh 5. That, the learned Assessee Officer has erred relying on the case law Smt. SarifabibiMohmed Ibrahim v. Commissioner of Income Tax reported in (1993) 204 ITR 631 (SC), which is not applicable in the present case on facts and law. 6. That, the order dated 18.05.2023 passed by the learned CIT(A) is without application of mind and simply reiterated the order passed by learned Assessee Officer. 7. That, the impugned orders passed by the Department is contrary to sec. 2(14)(iii) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
It was brought to our notice that the order has been passed by the ld. CIT(A) ex-parte, owing to non-compliance to the notices issued by the ld. CIT(A). The ld. AR pleaded that given an opportunity, due compliance would be made before the ld. CIT(A).
The ld. DR fairly accepted, hence in the interest of justice, we hold that no prejudice would be cause to Revenue, if the matter is remanded to the file of the ld. CIT(A) to afford an opportunity of being heard to the assessee and pass order a fresh. The assessee shall comply to the notices issued by the ld. CIT(A) from time to time without seeking unnecessary adjournments.
