PER AMIT SHUKLA (J.M):
The aforesaid appeal has been filed by the assessee against order dated 18/10/2024 passed by NFAC, Delhi for the quantum of assessment passed u/s. 143(3) for the A.Y.2015-16. 2.

3. Before us it had been stated that the income tax matters and other related tax compliances was looked upon by former
Accountant Mr. Amritlal Tiwari. The e-mail ID in the portal was of Mr. Amritlal Tiwari, however, he got disassociated with the company from 20/04/2023 and no new tax person was appointed. Accordingly, the notice sent on the said email from the ld. CIT (A) went unnoticed as Assessee Company was not aware. Apart from that, the order of the ld. CIT(A) was uploaded in the e-filing portal and due to this reason alone assessee was not aware of passing of any order by ld. CIT(A) and no physical copy was served upon the assessee. Later in the month of April 2025, new consultant was appointed and while he was taking looking for the status of appellate proceedings on the e-filing portal, came to know about the said order. Thus, because of this reason the appeal was not filed within the statutory time period of 60 days.
Under these circumstances, that assessee was not aware of the order of the ld. CIT(A) due to aforesaid facts, the delay of 152 days is condoned. Since it is an exparte order passed by the ld. CIT(A) without deciding on merits therefore, the entire issue is set aside to the file of the ld. CIT(A) to be decided afresh and in accordance with law after giving due opportunity of hearing to the assessee. M/s. Coral Conpro Pvt. Ltd.
In the result, appeal of the assessee is allowed.
