Yogesh Bhomraj Porwal L/H of Bhomraj Chandanmal Porwal AY. 2012-13 3. In case of death, the right to appeal against the impugned order vest with legal representative [for short ‘LR’] of the deceased assessee, as this LR u/s 159(3) of the Act is deemed to be an assessee. In terms of section 2(29) of the Act r.w.s 2(11) of Code of Civil Procedure [for short ‘CPC’], the ‘LR’ means a person who in law represents the estate of a deceased person, and includes any person who intermeddles with the estate of the deceased and where a party sues or issued in a representative character the person on whom the estate devolves on the death of the party so suing or sued.
The instant appeal instituted against the impugned order, in our considered view lacks the necessary legal standing of the appellant to engage in this proceedings as the appellant failed to establish with cogent material that he represents the estate of deceased assessee in terms of section 2(11) of CPC r.w.s 2(29) of the Act. For the forgoing reason, we dismiss this appeal with a leave to revive by ‘LR’ in accordance with the provisions of the Act and CPC.
In result, the appeal of the appellant is DISMISSED in above terms. U/r 34 of ITAT Rules, order pronounced in open court on this Wednesday 01st day of November, 2023.
