What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal condoned the 430-day delay in filing the appeal, admitting it for hearing.

The assessee's AR contended that the CIT(A) passed the order without affording sufficient opportunity of being heard.

What were the issues?

Whether the delay in filing the appeal should be condoned; whether the assessee was afforded sufficient opportunity of being heard by the CIT(A) before passing an ex-parte order.
