What were the issues?

Whether the CIT(A) erred in dismissing the appeal for non-prosecution without considering reasonable cause, and whether the case should be remitted back for fresh adjudication.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 147,Section 144B,Section 250(4),Section 251(1)(a),Section 53A,Section 56(2)(vii)(b),Section 43CA,Section 50C
