Aforesaid appeal by assessee for Assessment Year (AY) 2013-14 arises out of an order passed by learned Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), NFAC, Delhi [CIT(A)] on 08-05-2024 in the matter of an assessment framed by 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.
