This appeal of the assessee is fixed for hearing on 16.05.2017 and notice of hearing was issued by RPAD. The postal authorities returned the notice of hearing with the endorsement ‘unclaimed’. There may be various reasons for the assessee for not claiming the registered letter after intimation by the postal authorities. One of the reason presumably, the assessee may not be interested in prosecuting this appeal any further. No one appeared for the assessee when the appeal is taken up for hearing. This Tribunal has no machinery to trace out the assessee and serve the notice. Keeping in view the proviso to Rule 24 of Income Tax (Appellate Tribunal) Rules, 1963, this appeal of the assessee is dismissed for non-prosecution.
However it is made clear that the assessee is at liberty to move this Tribunal for recall of this order provided there was a sufficient cause on the part of the assessee for not appearing before this Tribunal on 16.05.2017, when the appeal is taken up for hearing.
With the above observation, the appeal of the assessee is dismissed.
Order pronounced in the open court on 16th May, 2017 at Chennai.
