What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal condoned the delay in filing the appeal, considering the assessee's low literacy and rural background. On merits, it held that since the revisionary order under Section 263 was quashed, the subsequent assessment order based on it became infructuous and was quashed.

The assessee's appeal was filed after a significant delay of 572 days. The core issue was the addition of Rs. 32 lacs for unexplained cash deposits. The original assessment order was set aside by the PCIT under Section 263, but this revisionary order was later quashed by the ITAT.

What were the issues?

Whether the delay in filing the appeal should be condoned? Whether the assessment order passed pursuant to a quashed revisionary order is valid?

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
