AI SummaryN/A

Facts

The assessee filed two appeals against ex-parte orders of the CIT(A) for AY 2011-12 & 2012-13, which arose from assessment orders passed u/s 147. The assessment was reopened based on information that the assessee made cash deposits of Rs. 18,79,200/- with M/s National Shroff Rajkot (an Angadiya Group), which was considered undisclosed income. The appeals were filed with a delay of 133 days, for which the assessee sought condonation due to a tax consultant's mistake.

Held

The Tribunal condoned the 133-day delay, finding the reason of tax consultant's mistake bona fide. It noted that the CIT(A)'s order was ex-parte and non-speaking, and since the assessee was a beneficiary of M/s. National Shroff (whose case was already remitted), it set aside the CIT(A)'s order. The matter was remitted back to the Assessing Officer for fresh adjudication on merits, allowing the assessee a proper opportunity of being heard.

Key Issues

Condonation of delay in filing appeal; validity of ex-parte CIT(A) order; and whether the matter should be remitted to the AO for fresh adjudication on merits regarding undisclosed cash deposits.
