heard. It was contended that the ld. CIT(E) has drawn unilateral conclusions in para-3 of his impugned order before rejecting the application for registration. It was stated that appellant’s right to natural justice is thus violated. The ld. Counsel assured that full cooperation would be made to the Revenue authorities and that the matter be remitted back to the CIT(E) for re-adjudication. 3. The ld. DR though relying upon the order of lower authorities did not oppose to the proposed move. 4. Heard rival parties in the light of material available on record. 5. The fact of ex-parte order of CIT(E) is evident from the unilateral conclusion drawn by him to reject assessee’s application. We are conscious that no litigant gains by non-prosecution of its case. In the interest of justice, we remit the matter back to the file of Ld. CIT(E) for re-adjudication de novo, in accordance with law and by passing a speaking order. The assessee shall be bounden to comply with all the statutory notices and any non-compliance would be adversely viewed. Accordingly, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. 6. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced in the open court on 19th August, 2026.
