Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, DELHI BENCH “C”: NEW DELHI
Before: SHRI H.S. SIDHU & SHRI L.P. SAHU
PER L. P. Sahu, A.M. This is an appeal filed by the assessee against the order of Ld. CIT(Appeals)-XXVI, New Delhi vide order dated 06.06.2016 pertaining to assessment year 2012-13. 2. At the time of hearing no one was present on behalf of the assessee nor was there any application for adjournment before us. While going through the records, it is seen that the present appeal is running in hearing since long although the assessee was granted early hearing on priority basis on the request of the assessee vide order dated 23.09.2016 on stay application No. 447/Del/2016. However, after seeking early hearing, the assessee is doing nothing but seeking adjournments for one reason or the other on various occasions of hearing, i.e., on 8.11.2016, 22.5.2017, 1.8.2017, 23.7.2018, 3.10.2018. This shows non-cooperation of the assessee and its disinterest to get the hearing completed.
From the above it is evident that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting its appeal. Therefore, considering the facts and keeping in view the provisions of Order V Rule 19A of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal Rules, as were considered in the cases of CIT vs. Multiplan (India) Pvt. Ltd., 38 ITD 320 (Del); and Late Tukoji Rao Holkar, 223 ITR 480 (MP), we dismiss this appeal filed by the assessee in limine.
In the result appeal of the assessee is dismissed indicated above. Order pronounced in the open court on 11th March, 2019. sd/- sd/- (H.S. SIDHU) (L.P.
