Aforesaid appeal by assessee for Assessment Year (AY) 2011-12 arises out of an ex-parte order passed by of learned Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), NFAC, Delhi [CIT(A)] on 31-07-2024 in the matter of an assessment framed by Ld. Assessing Officer [AO] u/s. 144 r.w.s. 147 of the Act on 24-10-2018. In the assessment order, Ld. AO made addition u/s 69A for Rs.11.63 Lacs. Though the assessee preferred further appeal, it failed to make any representation therein and accordingly, the assessment was confirmed against which the assessee is in further appeal before us. The Ld. AR has prayed for another opportunity of hearing before lower authorities which has been opposed by Ld. Sr. DR.
Keeping in mind the principles of natural justice and considering the possibility of communication gaps during faceless regime, we deem it fit to afford another opportunity of hearing to the assessee to substantiate its case before Ld. CIT(A). Accordingly, the impugned order is set aside and the appeal is restored back to the file of Ld. CIT(A) for de novo adjudication after affording reasonable opportunity of hearing to the assessee. The assessee is directed to substantiate its case forthwith.
The appeal stand allowed for statistical purposes as indicated upon conclusion of hearing. Order pronounced u/r 34(4) of Income Tax (Appellate Tribunal) Rules, 1963.
