Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, “B” BENCH, MUMBAI
Before: SHRI OM PRAKASH KANT, AM
Per Kavitha Rajagopal, JM:
This appeal has been filed by the assessee, challenging the order of the Learned
Commissioner of Income Tax [‘Ld. CIT(A)’ for short], National Faceless Appeal Centre
(‘NFAC’ for short) passed u/s. 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (‘the Act') pertaining to the Assessment Year (‘A.Y.’ for short) 2011-12. 2. As there was no representation on behalf of the assessee inspite of several
opportunities given, notably the Bench had also on the earlier occasion directed the assessee to appear inspite of giving a last opportunity, none appeared before us on behalf
of the assessee. We, therefore, proceed to decide this appeal by hearing the Learned
Depa
