absence of the assessee, we reject the adjournment petition and proceed to dispose the appeal of the revenue.

3.

The revenue has raised the following grounds:

“1. The order of the ld CIT (A) is erroneous both on the facts and in law. 2. Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case, the ld CIT(A) is justified in not considering the fact that the department has filed an appeal before the Hon’ble High court, Orissa in ITA No.06/2022 against the impugned quantum of addition in the assessee’s case for the A.T. 2014015 and the same is pending for adjudication.” 4. A perusal of the order of the ld CIT(A) shows that the ld CIT(A) has deleted the penalty levied under section 271(1)(c) of the Act on the ground that ITAT vide its order dated 23.12.2021 in assessee’s case for the assessment year 2014-15 has deleted the quantum addition. Pendency of the revenue’s appeal before the Hon’ble Jurisdictional High Court in the quantum addition does not give ground for reviving the penalty proceedings. This being so, as the quantum addition no more exists, we are of the view that the order of the ld CIT(A) does not call for any interference.

5.

In the result, appeal of the revenue stands dismissed.
