Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, BENCH ‘SMC’ KOLKATA
Before: Hon’ble Shri J.Sudhakar Reddy, AM]
This is an appeal filed by the assessee directed against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax-(A)-6, Kolkata dated 21.02.2018 passed u/s 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (the ‘Act ‘) relating to A.Y. 2013-14.
There is a delay of 11 days in filing of this appeal. After perusing the application filed for condonation of delay, along with evidences, I am convinced that the assessee had reasonable cause and could not file the appeal within the period of limitation. Hence I condone the delay and admit the appeal.
After hearing rival contentions, I find that the ld. CIT(A) has passed an ex parte order. He has not adjudicated the matter on merits. The assessee has demonstrated before me that there was violation of principles of natural justice. Hence I restore the appeal to the file of CIT(A) for fresh adjudication in accordance with law on the ground of natural justice.

In the result this appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purpose.
Order pronounced in the Court on 12.09.2018.
