Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, DELHI BENCH ‘E’ NEW DELHI
Before: SHRI H.S. SIDHU & SHRI L.P. SAHU
ORDER
Per L.P. Sahu, Accountant Member:
This appeal by the assessee is directed against the order dated 23.11.2010 passed by learned CIT(A)-Muzaffarnagar for assessment year 2003-04.
At the time of hearing, no one was present on behalf of the assessee despite the notice sent through register post at the address given in column No. 10 of the memorandum of appeal filed by the assessee. No request for adjournment has also come on record. Therefore, it can be safely inferred that the assessee is not serious in pursuing its appeal. In the circumstances, the only alternative left with us is to dismiss the appeal of the assessee in limine.
Support is drawn from the order of Tribunal in CIT vs. Multi Plan India (P) Ltd., 38 ITD 320 (Del.) and of M.P. High Court in Estate of Late Tukojirao Holkar vs. CWT, 223 ITR 480 (MP).
Before parting, we think it appropriate to add that in case the assessee is able to show reasonable cause for non-representation on the date of hearing, then it may, if so advised, pray for a recall of this order and decision on merits.
