2 ITA No.2512/M/2026 The Aluni Association of Science College Nagpur
The Ld. Commissioner also dismissed the Assessee's appeal, filed with a delay of 81 days, in limine, without affording an opportunity of being heard.
Before us, the Assessee relied upon the corrigendum dated 22.03.2024, whereby the period of registration was corrected to AYS 2022-23 to 2026-27.
Thus, in view of the aforesaid corrigendum, the Assessee would be entitled to the benefit under section 11 of the Act. Accordingly, the matter is restored to the file of the Jurisdictional AO for factual verification and recomputation of income in accordance with law, after affording a reasonable opportunity of being heard to the Assessee.
In the result, the Assessee's appeal is allowed in the above terms.
Order pronounced in the open court on 13.07.2026.
