ITA No. 269/CTK/2024 Assessment Year : 2017-18

“1. That your honour has been pleased to take up the above mentioned matter for hearing of the appeal on 27.8.2024. 2. That, we have not received necessary documents from the party and it will be difficult on our part to appear before your honour without documents. Prayer It is therefore, prayed that your honour may be kind enough to adjourn the case to last week of September 2024 or to any other date suitable to your honour. And for this act of your kindness the appellant as in duty bound shall every pray.” 4. No reasons have been given in the adjournment application. Consequently, the adjournment application is rejected and the appeal disposed off. A perusal of the orders of lower authorities being the ld CIT(A) and the Assessing Officer shows that the assessment order is an exparte assessment order insofar as no evidences have been produced before the ld Assessing Officer. A perusal of the order of the ld CIT(A) also shows that same is also exparte. This being so, in the interest of justice, the issues in this appeal are restored to file of the Assessing Officer for readjudication after granting reasonable opportunity of being heard.

5.

In the result, appeal of the assessee stands partly allowed for statistical purposes.
