This is an appeal filed by the revenue against the order dated 22.11.2023, passed by the Id. Addl./JCIT(A)-9, Mumbai, for the assessment year 2019-2020.
The appeal of the revenue is barred by 219 days. No condonation petition has been filed by the revenue. In absence of any petition with regard to condonation of delay by the revenue, we are unable to proceed to admit the appeal of the revenue. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal of the revenue on account of delay.
