Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, “C” BENCH : BANGALORE
Before: SHRI SUNIL KUMAR YADAV & SHRI INTURI RAMA RAO
O R D E R Per Sunil Kumar Yadav, Judicial Member
This appeal is preferred by the Revenue against the order of CIT(A), interalia, on the following grounds:
The order of the CIT (Appeals) is opposed to law and the facts and circumstances of the case.
On the facts and in circumstances of the case, the CIT(A) erred in deciding the matter based on the fresh evidences submitted by the assessee without giving an opportunity to the assessing officer to such evidences which is contravened to the provision of Rule 46A(3).
3. For-these and such other grounds that may be urged at the time of hearing, it is humbly prayed that the order of the CIT(A) in so far as it relates to the above grounds may be reversed and that of the Assessing Officer be restored.
The appellant craves leave to add, alter, amend or delete any of the grounds that may be urged at the time of hearing of the appeal.
Page 2 of 2 2. During the course of hearing, our attention was invited to the order of the Tribunal for the assessment year 2012-13 in which the identical issue was raised and the Tribunal has restored the matter to the AO for re-examining the issue in the light of additional evidences and also to adjudicate the issue after affording opportunity of being heard to the assessee. In that year, the requisite certificates were not filed. Similar is the position here. We, therefore, following the order of the Tribunal for the earlier years set aside the order of the CIT(A) and restore the matter to the AO with the direction to re-examine the issue in the light of certificates filed in the form of additional evidences and adjudicate it after affording opportunity of being heard to the asse ssee. Accordingly, the Revenue’s appeal stands allowed for statistical purposes.
In the result, appeal of the Revenue is allowed for statistical purposes.
