Any other ground of appeal(s) which may be raised during the course of hearing of appeal. “
The assessee is a private limited company engaged in manufacturing of different kind of papers etc. The assessee filed return of income on 31.10.2015 showing loss of Rs. 21,19,57,021/-. The Assessing Officer assessed the loss at Rs. 1,11,19,899 vide assessment order dated 26.12.2017.
Being aggrieved by the assessment order, the assessee filed appeal before the CIT (Appeals). The CIT (A) dismissed the appeal of the assessee.
The Ld. Authorized Representative submitted that the CIT (Appeals) has not given an appropriate opportunity of hearing to the assessee to represent his case.
The Ld. Departmental Representative relied upon the assessment order and the order of the CIT (Appeals).
We have heard both the parties and perused all the material available on
3 ITA No.3287/Del/2019
record. It is pertinent to note that the CIT (Appeals) has not given any categorical finding on merits of the case and also did not give sufficient opportunity of hearing to the assessee. Therefore, the CIT (Appeals) was not right in dismissing the appeal of the assessee without giving proper opportunity of hearing. Hence, we are remanding back the entire issue to the file of the CIT (Appeals) to be decided on merits. Needless to say, the assessee be given an opportunity of hearing by following the principles of natural justice. The appeal of the assessee is partly allowed, for statistical purpose.
In result, appeal of the assessee is partly allowed, for statistical purpose. Order pronounced in the Open Court on this 25th Day of November, 2020
