O R D E R PER MADHUMITA ROY, JM:
The instant appeal filed by the assessee is directed against
the order dated 25.04.2024 passed by the Ld. Commissioner of
Income-tax (Appeals)/National Faceless Appeal Centre, Delhi
under Section 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter
referred to as ‘the Act’) arising out of the order dated 20.05.2023
passed by the Assessment Unit, Income-tax Department
(hereinafter referred to as ‘the ld. AO’) under Section 147 r.w.s
144 read with section 144B of the Act for Assessment Year 2019-
20.
2 ITA No. 3941/Del/2026 Yatender Kumar Gupta HUF 2. The assessee has come up in appeal against the order passed
by the Ld. CIT(A) which is admittedly an expert one. In fact the
delay of 179 days in filing the said appeal by the assessee was
also not considered and the appeal was dismissed due to
limitation. it is the case of the assessee that the assessee duly
submitted the reason for not been able to prefer the appeal in
time. However, the same was not considered in its proper
perspective and the appeal stood dismissed. Even before us the
appeal is found to be barred by limitation for about 654 days in
support of which an application for condonation of delay has
been filed on 07.09.20 and the reasons assigned therein the filing
the appeal belatedly seems to be genuine and therefore such
delay in preferring the appeal before us is condoned.
The reason assigned by the assessee in filing the appeal
belatedly before the Ld. CIT(A) is also found to be acceptable and
therefore such delay is hereby condoned. However, having regard
to the principle of natural justice and in order to prevent the
miscarriage of justice we are disposing of this appeal by setting
aside the appeal to the file of the Ld. CIT(A) for consideration of
the same afresh upon granting an opportunity of being heard to
3 ITA No. 3941/Del/2026 Yatender Kumar Gupta HUF
the assessee and upon considering the evidence on record or any
other evidence which the assessee may choose to file at the time
of hearing of the matter. In the result, the assessee’s appeal is
allowed for statistical purposes.
Order pronounced in the open court on 14/09/2026.
