2. After hearing rival contentions, I find that the ld. CIT(A) has passed an ex-parte order. The assessee filed an affidavit giving reasons as to why he could not appear before the ld. CIT(A). I am convinced that he was prevented by sufficient cause from appearing before the revenue authorities.

The assessee shall appear before the ld. CIT(A), within one month of receipt of this order, take notice and thereafter co-operate in disposal of this appeal.
