आदेश / O R D E R
During the course of hearing, I find that the appeal was earlier posted on 08.06.2017 and at the request of the A.R. for the assessee, the case was adjourned to 22.08.2017 i.e. to-day. The appeal was filed belatedly, no condonotion petition was filed. When the appeal was called up for hearing, none appeared on behalf of assessee nor any ITA No. 624/Mds/2017 :- 2 -: adjournment request was received. Hence, it is inferred that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting the appeal. Following the decision of the Delhi Bench of the Tribunal in the case of CIT v.
Multiplan (India) Ltd. (38 ITD 320) (Del), I dismiss the appeal filed by the assessee, for non-prosecution.
In the result, the appeal of the assessee is dismissed.
Order pronounced in the open court on Tuesday, the 22nd August of 2017, at Chennai.
