ORDER Per Bench: The assessee is in captioned appeals before the Tribunal, challenging the orders of Assessing Officers passed u/s. 143(3) read with section 144C of the Income-tax Act read with directions of ld. Dispute Resolution Penal, New Delhi for various assessment years, as noted in the cause title above.
None is present on behalf of the assessee. Notices for hearing were sent to the assessee through registered post at the address given in the appeal papers, which are deemed to have been served upon it, as the same have not returned back un-served. No any written request for adjournment on behalf of the assessee has come before us. It, therefore, appears that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting its appeals. Therefore, the appeals of the assessee deserve to be dismissed in limine for want of prosecution in view of the orders of Tribunal in CIT vs. Multi Plan India (P) Ltd., 38 ITD 320 (Del.) and of M.P. High Court in Estate of Late Tukojirao Holkar vs. CWT, 223 ITR 480 (MP).
Before parting, we think it appropriate to add that in case the assessee is able to show reasonable cause for non-representation on the date of hearing, then it may, if so advised, pray for recall of this order and decision on merits.
In the result, all the appeals are dismissed, as indicated above. Order is pronounced in the open court on 2nd July, 2018.
