JAYESH PURUSHOTTAM PATEL,PUNE vs. THE COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX APPEAL , PUNE
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal set aside the ex-parte order of the CIT(A) and remanded the case back to him. The CIT(A) is directed to decide the appeal afresh on merits, ensuring a reasonable opportunity of hearing is provided to the assessee, and the grounds of appeal were allowed for statistical purposes.
What were the facts?
The assessee, an individual, filed a return for AY 2016-17 claiming Chapter VI-A deduction, which was allowed in the original assessment under section 143(3).

The CIT(A) dismissed the assessee's subsequent appeal ex-parte due to non-appearance.

Whether the CIT(A) erred in passing an ex-parte order without providing an opportunity of being heard, the validity of reopening assessment under sections 147/148, and the correctness of disallowing deduction under section 80IA.
