O R D E R Per J. Sudhakar Reddy :-
This appeal filed by the revenue is directed against the order of the ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-9, Kolkata, (hereinafter the ‘ld. CIT (A)’), passed u/s 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (the ‘Act’), dt. 30/12/2015, for the Assessment Year 2010-11.
None appeared on behalf of the assessee despite issual of notice through the Department. Earlier also there was no compliance from the assessee. Under these circumstances, we dispose of this case ex-parte, qua the assessee on merits, after hearing the ld. D/R.
The prime contention of the revenue is that, the ld. CIT(A) had admitted additional evidence in violation of Rule 46A of the Income Tax Rules, 1962 (hereinafter ‘the Rules’). It is also submitted that the Assessing Officer was not given an opportunity to express his view on the additional evidences taken on record by the ld. CIT(A).
2 Assessment Year: 2010-11 M/s. Dalhousie Exchange 4. Under these circumstances, we set aside the order of the ld. CIT(A), and restore this case to the file of the Assessing Officer for fresh adjudication, in accordance with law. The Assessing Officer shall give adequate opportunity to the assessee. 5. In the result, appeal of the revenue is allowed for statistical purposes.
