For Appellant: Shri Hasmukh Desai, A.R, Shri Alpesh Parmar, CIT. DR
For Respondent: Shri Alpesh Parmar, CIT. DR
Pronounced: 30/04/2026

Per Sanjay Garg, Judicial Member:

The present appeal has been filed by the assessee against the order of the Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemption), (hereinafter referred to as “CIT(E)”), Ahmedabad dated 09.03.2026.

ITA No.982/Ahd/2026 [Shri Radhakrushna Mandir vs. CIT(Exemption)] - 2 – 2. The assessee in this appeal is aggrieved by the action of the Ld. CIT(E) in rejecting the application of the assessee trust for renewal of the registration u/s.12A(1)(ac)(ii) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred to as the “Act”).

3.

At the outset, Ld. Counsel for the assessee submitted that the Ld. CIT(E) has rejected the application of the assessee trust for renewal of the registration u/s. 12A(1)(ac)(ii) of the Act without giving proper opportunity to the assessee trust to present its case and even without considering the relevant details and submissions already furnished by the assessee on record. Ld. Counsel has submitted that only one opportunity was granted by the Ld. CIT(E) to furnish the requisite details against which the assessee trust filed the requisite details, however, the Ld. CIT(E) without considering the same rejected the application of the assessee in a mechanical manner.

4.

Considering the above submissions and going through the impugned order of the Ld. CIT(E), we are of the view that interests of justice will be well served, if the assessee be given an opportunity to present its case before the Ld.CIT(E). Accordingly, the impugned order of the Ld.CIT(E) in relation of the application is hereby set aside and the matter is restored to the file of the Ld.CIT(E) for decision afresh on the application of the assessee. Needless to say that the Ld.CIT(E) will give proper and adequate opportunity to the assessee to present its case and, thereafter, will

5.

In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee trust is treated as allowed for statistical purposes.
