of the order dated 30.01.2019 the ld. CIT(A) takes note of the

fact that the appeal had been fixed for hearing on

the file of the CIT(A) with a direction to pass a speaking

order in accordance with law after giving the assessee a

of abuse of the trust, the ld. CIT(A) would be at liberty to

pass an order on the basis of material available on record.
