PER WASEEM AHMED, ACCOUNTANT MEMBER:
These appeals are filed by the assessee against the orders passed by the NFAC, Delhi dated 10/06/2024 in DIN No. ITBA/NFAC/ S/250/2024-25/1065522327(1) for the assessment year 2018-19 and dated 03/06/2024 in DIN No. ITBA/NFAC/S/250/2024-25/1065358192(1) for the assessment year 2020-21.

Against the assessment order, the assessee preferred an appeal before the ld. CIT(A) who inadvertently has recorded the facts and findings in his order, which were not emanating from the assessment order. Thus, the ld. AR appearing on behalf of the assessee submitted before us that the matter can be restored to the file of the ld. CIT(A) for fresh adjudication as per the provisions of law in the light of the findings contained in the impugned assessment order.
On the other hand, the ld. DR could not controvert the arguments advanced by the ld. AR for the assessee.
We have heard the rival contentions of both the parties and perused the materials available on record. In the light of the above stated discussion, we deem it fit to restore the issue to the file of the ld. CIT(A) for fresh adjudication after considering the impugned assessment order. It is also directed to the assessee to prepare the relevant submission for the perusal of the ld. CIT(A). Hence, the ground of appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes.
In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes.
