Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, RAJKOT BENCH, RAJKOT
Before: SHRI WASEEM AHMED&
PER Ms. MADHUMITA ROY - JM:
The instant appeal filed by the assessee is against order dated 24.06.2014 passed by the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-I, Rajkot arising out of the order dated 11.03.2013 passed by the DCIT, Circle-1, Rajkot under section 143(3) r.w.s. 147 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred as to “the Act”) for the Assessment Year 2006-07.
The notice of hearing was sent to the assessee by Registered Post as per the address given in Column No.10 of Form No. 36. However, at the time of hearing none appeared on behalf of the assessee nor any application for adjournment was filed. From this, it is reasonable to infer that the assessee is not serious to pursue his case. Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of CIT-vs-B.N. Bhattachargee and Another, 118 ITR 461(SC) observed that preferring an appeal means effectively pursuing it. Hon’ble M.P. High
- 2 - ITA No.528/Rjt/2014 M/s. Kishor Project Pvt. Ltd. vs DCIT A.Y. 2007-08
Court in the case of Estate of Late Tukojirao Holkar-vs-CWT, 223 ITR 480(M.P.) dismissed the reference filed by the assessee for not taking necessary steps. Similar view is taken by I.T.A.T., Delhi Bench in the case of Multiplan India Ltd., 38 ITD 320. Considering the above, since it appears that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting its appeal, we are inclined to dismiss the appeal filed by the assessee for non-prosecution. However the assessee is at liberty to apply for recall of the order within the prescribed time after furnishing the suitable reasons for non-appearance. Hence the appeal filed by the assessee is dismissed.
In the result, appeal filed by the assessee is dismissed. This Order pronounced in Open Court on 29/11/2019
