CIT (E) in the case of Chamber of Tax Consultants vs. CIT(E) (2026) 184 taxmann.com 374 (Bom.). In our considered view and in the interest of justice, assessee should be given one more opportunity of being heard on merit. Therefore, we direct ld.

We also direct assessee to make proper submissions and appear before the ld.CIT (E) on the date of hearing and cooperate with the tax authorities. Accordingly, the appeal filed by the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. 4. Similarly, the registration u/s 80G was also rejected on the same ground. The assessee is in appeal before us by filing separate appeal vide ITA No.4250/Del/2026. We remit this issue also back to the file of ld. CIT (E) in the interest of justice. Both the issues under consideration may be decided as per law. 5. In the result, the appeals filed by the assessee are allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced in the open court on this 23rd day of June, 2026 after the conclusion of the hearing.
