PER YOGESH KUMAR, U.S. JM: These two appeals are filed by the Assessee against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemption)-, Delhi (‘Ld. CIT(E)’ for short) dated 27/12/2024,wherein the applications filed by the Assessee for grant of registration u/s 12AA and 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961 ('Act' for short) were rejected. Sh.

2.

The Ld. Counsel for the Assessee submitted that the orders impugned have been passed ex-parte, wherein Ld. CIT(E)has not verified the documents produced by the Appellant and without providing opportunity to the appellant to produce further documents and and to make submissions, the orders impugned has been passed. Thus, sought for allowing the Appeal.

3.

The Ld. Department's Representative vehemently submitted that the appellant has failed to substantiate the claim in support of the applications filed by the Appellant. By relying on the orders of the Lower Authority, sought for dismissal of the Appeals.

4.

We have heard the parties and perused the material available on record. It can be seen from the order impugned, the Ld. CIT(E) has rejected the application for want of documents to substantiate the claim of the Appellant. Considering the fact that the Assessee is claimed to be conducting charitable activities, should have provided opportunity to the appellant to produce the documents to substantiate its claim and the Ld. CIT(E) thereafter should have decided the application on its merit. Thus, we set aside the impugned orders of the Ld. CIT(E) and remand the matter to the file of Ld. CIT(E) with a direction to decide the applications afresh after providing opportunity of being heard to the Appellant. The Sh. Nimbark International Social Welfare Trust

Appellant is also at liberty to cure/comply any technical objections if any in the applications filed by the Appellant and also produce further documents in support of its claim.

5.

In the result, the appeals filed by the Assessee are partly allowed for statistical purpose. Order pronounced in the open court on 14th May , 2025 (M. BALAGANESH) JUDICIAL MEMBER Date: 14 .05.2025 R.N, Sr.P.S*
