Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, : RANCHI BENCH, RANCHI
Before: SHRI S.S.GODARA
Date of hearing 03.03.2020 Date of pronouncement 03.03.2020 O R D E R S. S. Godara(Oral): This assessee’s appeal for assessment year 2014-15 arises against the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), Hazaribag, Jharkhand dated 20.06.2017 passed in case no.10076/HZN/2016-17 involving proceedings u/s 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (in short ‘the Act’). Case called twice. The assessee has filed his adjournment petition dated 28.03.2020. There is nobody to pursue the same, I proceed ex parte therefore.
It transpires from a perusal of the case file and with the able assistance of the learned departmental representative that the dispute between the parties herein is about the nature of capital assets sold. Learned departmental representative fails to dispute that the CIT(A)’s lower appellate discussion has not taken into consideration the relevant documents/materials in the sale deed as to whether the same involved a residential house property or a part of land per se. I therefore deem it appropriate to restore the instant issue back to the CIT(A) for proper adjudication. All other remaining issues shall also be considered and adjudicated as per law since incidental to the foregoing section 54F deduction claim only.
