This appeal by the assessee is directed against the order dated 30.04.2019 of ld. CIT(A)-II, Jaipur for the assessment year 2012-13.
None has appeared on behalf of the assessee when the appeal was taken up for hearing through video conference despite notices issued to the assessee. The assessee has filed a letter requesting more time and adjournment of the hearing. It transpired from record that after the filing the appeal the assessee has been seeking adjournments Vikash Gems Inc. vs. ITO accordingly, the request of the assessee is rejected and the appeal is taken up for hearing ex-parte.
The assessee has raised the following grounds:-
“1. CIT(A) has erred by applying section 145(3) of IT. Act, 1961.
2. CIT(A) has erred by reducing G.P. rate from 17.48 to 17% and treating Rs. 3,09,377/- as income from undisclosed source without any reasonable basis.
3. CIT(A) has erred by not treating interest income on FDR as business income and disallowing deduction of Rs. 13,06,573/-. The said FDR is made to get buyer’s credit limit from bank.
4. CIT(A) has erred by calculating Rs. 3,09,377.00 as income from other source and on the other side disallowed the same u.s 10AA of the Income Tax Act, 1961.”
We have heard the DR and carefully perused the impugned of the ld. CIT(A). At the outset, we note the ld. CIT(A) has dismissed the appeal of the assessee due to non appearance of the assessee.
However, the appeal of the assessee was not disposed off on merits by a speaking order. Therefore, in the facts and circumstances of the case we grant one more opportunity to the assessee to present its case before the ld. CIT(A). Accordingly, the matter is set aside to the record Vikash Gems Inc. vs. ITO of the ld. CIT(A) for deciding fresh after granting one more opportunity of hearing to the assessee. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced in the open court on 09/07/2020.
