It is noticed that the Registry fixed the appeal of the assessee for the hearing on 02-04-2018 by issuing notice dt. 21-02-2018. We find no representation on behalf of assessee nor filed any application seeking adjournment. On perusal of the record, we find that the assessee has not complied with the notice issued by the CIT-A in the first appellate proceedings in support of the grounds of appeal

therein and kept on seeking adjournments from the months of May, 2016 to October 2016 i.e. for five months. It appears that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting its case.

CWT reported in (223 ITR 480(MP), we dismiss the appeal of the assessee in limine for want of prosecution.
