This appeal was taken up for hearing on 21/5/2019, but none appeared on behalf of the assessee, nor any application for adjournment has been filed. This appeal was earlier fixed for hearing on 26/4/2019, on which date the ld. A.R. of the assessee had moved an application for adjournment on the pretext that the paper book is required to be filed in this case. Conceding the request of the ld. A.R. of the assessee, the hearing was adjourned to 21/5/2019 and the date of hearing was duly noted by the ld. A.R. of the assessee. However, none appeared on behalf of the assessee despite having knowledge of the date of hearing. Since the assessee did not appear despite having knowledge of the date of hearing, it appears that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting the appeal. As such, I hold that the appeal is liable to be dismissed for
