Assessee by : Shri S.K.sarangi/Bishwajyoti Patnaik Revenue by : Shri Subhendu Dutta, DR

Date of Hearing : 06/02/ 2019 Date of Pronouncement : 06/02/ 2019

O R D E R This is an appeal filed by the assessee against the order of

the Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeals)-1, Bhubaneswar dated

3.8.20168 for the assessment year 2015-16.

The sole issue involved in this appeal is that the

Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeals), Cuttack was not justified

in disposing the appeal of the assessee without affording

reasonable opportunity to the assessee.

ITA No. 402/CT K/ 2018 Asse ssment Year : 20 15- 16

I have heard the rival submissions, perused the orders of

lower authorities and material available on record of the Tribunal.

On perusal of the order of the CIT(A), I observe that the CIT(A)

has mentioned two dates of hearing i.e. 4.7.2018 and 26.7.2018

but there is no mention in the order about issuance of notice to

the assessee for the dates of hearing fixed and their service on

the assessee. In absence of the same, in my considered view, the

CIT(A) was not justified in deciding the appeal of the assessee for

non-appearance of the assessee on the dates of hearing.

Therefore, in order to render substantial justice, I set aside the

order of the CIT(A) and remand the matter back to his file for

fresh adjudication of the appeal of the assessee after allowing

reasonable opportunity of hearing. The assessee is directed to

appear before the CIT(A) and render full co-operation by filing all

the details as and when called upon to do so.

In the result, appeal is allowed for statistical purposes.

Order pronounced on 06/02/2019.
