Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, KOLKATA BENCH “D” KOLKATA

Before: Shri Waseem Ahmed & Shri S.S.Viswanethra Ravi

O R D E R

PER Waseem Ahmed, Accountant Member:

- This appeal by the assessee for the assessment year 1999-00 is directed against the order of Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-1, Kolkata dated 11.04.2016.

Today when the matter was called on for hearing, there was no response from the side of the assessee nor any adjournment application was filed by the assessee though notice of hearing was sent to assessee through RPAD. It was also observed that assessee also failed to appear before the ld. CIT(A) despite the notices for hearing were issued upon the assessee. Therefore the ld. CIT(A) passed the ex-parte order. From the above, it is inferred that the assessee is not interested in pursuing its case.

Considering the facts of the case and keeping in view the provisions of rule 19(2) of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal Rules as were considered in the case of CIT vs. Multiplan India Ltd., (38 ITD 320)(Del), the assessee’s appeal is liable to be dismissed for want of prosecution.
