PER SUCHITRA KAMBLE, JM

1.

This is an appeal filed by the Revenue. There is adjournment application on behalf of the Sr. DR as he was not available on 30.05.2016. While looking to the appeal papers it was found that the Tax Effect in the present appeal is less than Rs. 10 Lakhs. The same was pointed out to the Ld. CIT-DR, Mr. Ravi Jain who was present. Admittedly the tax effect in this appeal by the Revenue is less than Rs.10 lakhs. Thus, we are of the opinion that there is no necessity for adjourning the appeal and rejected the adjournment application.
