Before us the ld. Counsel for the assessee stated that since the juri iction lies with ld. CIT(E), Pune and the Counsel was placed at Mumbai, there was mis-communication between the trust and the ld. Counsel and, therefore, the requisite details could not be furnished as sought by the ld. CIT(E) and if an opportunity is given, the assessee will comply with the directions of the ld. CIT(E). 4. On such concession, we deem it fit to remit the matter to the file of the ld. CIT(E). The assessee is directed to furnish requisite details and the ld. CIT(E) is directed to consider the same and decide the issues afresh as per the provisions of the law after affording reasonable and adequate opportunity of being hearing to the assessee. 5. In the result, appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced in the Court on 22nd April, 2025 at Mumbai. (SANDEEP SINGH KARHAIL) ACCOUNTANT MEMBER
