DR सुनवाईकीतारीख/Date of Hearing : 21-02-2025 घोषणाकीतारीख /Date of Pronouncement : 22.04.2025 आदेश / O R D E R Manoj Kumar Aggarwal (Accountant Member) 1. Aforesaid appeal by assessee for Assessment Year (AY) 2011-12 arises out of an order passed by learned Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), NFAC, Delhi [CIT(A)] on 03-11-2023 in the matter of an assessment framed by Ld. Assessing Officer [AO] u/s. 147 r.w.s. 143(3) of the Act on 11-12-2018. In the assessment order, Ld. AO made various additions and determined total income at Rs.53.24 Lacs for want of any satisfactory explanation from the assessee. The Ld. CIT(A) confirmed the assessment for the very same reasons. Aggrieved, the assessee is in further appeal before us. The Ld. AR pleaded for another opportunity of hearing before lower authorities which has been opposed by Ld. Sr. DR. The registry has noted delay of 298 days in the appeal which stand condoned.
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. Order pronounced u/r 34(4) of Income Tax (Appellate Tribunal) Rules, 1963.
