On the last date of hearing the appeal was adjourned as none appeared on behalf of the assessee and a notice has been issued to the assessee duly intimating the date of hearing. However, even today i.e., on 03.12.2018, none appeared on behalf of the assessee nor any application seeking 2 ITA.No.1880/Del./2018 SRH Infrastructure Private Limited, New Delhi. for adjournment has been filed. It, therefore, appears that assessee is no more interested in prosecuting the appeal. The appeal of assessee is, therefore, liable to be dismissed.

Bhattachargee & Another (118 ITR 461 at page 477-478) wherein their Lordships held that the appeal does not mean, mere filing of the memo of appeal but effectively pursuing the same.
