Before: SHRI R.S. SYAL

For Appellant: Shri M.K. Kulkarni
For Respondent: Shri Sourabh Nayak

आदेश / ORDER

PER R.S. SYAL, VP:

This appeal by the assessee arises out of the ex parte order dated

05-07-2023 passed by the ld. CIT(A) in National Faceless Appeal

Centre (NFAC), Delhi u/s.250 of the Income-tax Act, 1961

(hereinafter also called ‘the Act’) in relation to the assessment year

2011-12.

2.

This appeal is time barred by about 89 days. The assessee has

filed an affidavit stating the reasons which led to the late filing. I am

satisfied with the reasons so stated. Therefore, the delay is condoned

and the instant appeal is admitted for disposal on merits.

3.

I have heard both the sides and perused the relevant material on

record. It is seen that the assessment order in this case was passed

u/s.144 r.w.s.147 of the Act determining total income at Rs.27.03 lakh

as against the returned income of Rs.3.37 lakh. The ld. CIT(A) also

dismissed the appeal by means of an ex parte order in the absence of

the assessee. In view of the facts obtaining in the instant case where

both the assessment as well as the first appellate orders have been

passed in the absence of the assessee, and considering the request

made on behalf of the assessee, I am of the opinion that it would be

just and fair if the impugned order is set-aside and the matter is

remitted to the file of the AO with a direction to pass the assessment

order afresh as per law after allowing a reasonable opportunity of

hearing to the assessee. I order accordingly. Needless to say, the

assessee will be at liberty to lead any fresh evidence in support of her

case in the fresh assessment.

4.

In the result, the appeal is allowed for statistical purposes.

Order pronounced in the Open Court on 19th December, 2023.
