3. At the outset, from the perusal of the appellate order, It is seen that Ld.CIT(A) has provided many opportunities to the assessee to file the submissions in support of the grounds of appeals taken before him, however, those opportunities were not availed by the assessee and therefore, Ld.CIT(A) has dismissed the appeals ex- parte to the assessee and confirmed the disallowance made by the AO. Before us, Revenue has filed adjournment application which is rejected and from the perusal of the appellate proceedings, it is seen that the appeal is decided by Ld.CIT(A) ex-parte.
Looking to the facts of the case and in the interest of justice, in our considered opinion, the assessee be granted one more opportunity in the captioned appeals. Therefore, the matters are sent back to the file of Ld.CIT(A) to decide the appeals of the assessee afresh after providing one more opportunity to the assessee. The assessee is also directed to appear before the Ld.CIT(A) and participated in the appellate proceedings and file all the evidences in support of the Grounds of appeals.
In the result, captioned appeals of the assessee are allowed for statistical purposes.
Order pronounced in the open Court on 24.07.2025. (YOGESH KUMAR U.S)
