ORDER
PER SANDEEP GOSAIN, JM:
The present appeal has been filed by the assessee challenging the impugned order 24.02.2025 passed u/s 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (‘the Act’), by the National Faceless Appeal Centre, Delhi (NFAC) for the assessment year 2013-14.
None appeared on behalf of the assessee when the case was called repeatedly even no application for seeking adjournment has been filed. Whereas on the contrary Ld. DR present in the court is ready with the arguments. Therefore I have decided to proceed with the hearing of the case ex-parte.
2 Rekha Ramanand Yadav, Mumbai
On going through the records it is noticed that the assessee was ex-parte before both the authorities i.e AO and Ld. CIT(A), no documentary evidences have been placed on record in order to substantiate its case. Even before the Tribunal no submissions or documentary evidences have been filed to substantiate the grounds raised. Therefore, I have left with no other option except to dismiss the grounds raised by the assessee. Even otherwise after having gone through the detailed order passed by the Ld. CIT(A), I noticed that the AO has acted within the bounds of law in treating unexplained depositions as the turnover of the assessee. Since nothing has been placed on record to controvert or rebut the findings so recorded by the revenue authorities, therefore I see no reason to interfere or to deviate from the findings so recorded. Therefore grounds raised by the assessee stands dismissed.
In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee stands dismissed.
