Brahma Buildcare Private Limited,Bhopal ITA No. 555/Ind/2023 - AY 2009-10 2. The Ld. AR submits that the CIT(A), while conducting first-appeal,

has sent notices of hearing to e-mail address:

globalproperties.bhopal@gmail.com / brahmabuildcare@gmail.com although

the assessee has specifically mentioned email address:

vivekanandmishra19@rediffmail.com in the space provided in Form No. 35.

Therefore, due to non-service of notices at proper email address, the

assessee could not attend proceeding of first-appeal before CIT(A). Ld. AR

further prays that the matter may now be remanded to the file of CIT(A) for a

proper adjudication of grounds/issues raised in first-appeal by assessee on

merit, after giving due opportunity of hearing to assessee. Ld. DR would not

have any objection to the prayer of Ld. AR but makes a request to direct the

assessee to represent his case before CIT(A) and do not seek unnecessary

adjournments. Therefore and having regard to the principle of natural

justice and fair play, we deem it fit to remand this matter back to the file of

CIT(A) for a proper adjudication after giving hearing to assessee. We order

accordingly. The assessee is also directed to ensure participation in the

hearings fixed by CIT(A) and do not seek unnecessary adjournments.
