ORDER
Per J. Sudhakar Reddy, AM:
This is an appeal filed by the assessee directed against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), Ranchi [hereinafter ‘CIT(A)’ for short] dated 17.12.2018 passed u/s 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (‘the Act’ for short) for AY 2015-16.
None appeared on behalf of the assessee. There is no application for adjournment either. We find that the ld. CIT(A) has passed an ex-parte order. He has not disposed off the appeal on merits. Such dismissal for non-prosecution is not permissible in law. 3. The ld. DR submitted that the issue may be restored to the file of the ld. CIT(A) as there was violation of principles of natural justice. 4. Under these circumstances we set aside the matter to the file of the ld. CIT(A) for fresh adjudication in accordance with law.
Assessment Year: 2015-16 Raj Kumar Gupta (HUF). 5. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. Kolkata, the 16th September, 2020. Sd/- Sd/- [S.S. Godara] [J. Sudhakar Reddy] Judicial Member Accountant Member Dated: 16.09.2020 Bidhan Copy of the order forwarded to:
