O R D E R PER LALIET KUMAR, J.M.
This appeal is filed by the assessee, feeling aggrieved by the order passed by the Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemptions), dated 13.03.2024.
Facts of the case, in brief, are that assessee being the educational and welfare society was issued a notice dated 29-10- 2023 in respect of proceedings u/s 12A(1)(ac)(iii) mentioned in Form 10AB, to produce the copy of Memorandum of Association/ Trust deed for verification and to furnish a detailed reply on the specific information called for in the said notice. However, the assessee has submitted partial information, and it was observed that the CPC has issued Form No.10AC on 25-06-2022 for registration u/s 12AB valid from 2022-23 to 2024-25. In this regard a show cause letter dt.21-02-2024 was issued to assessee to submit the other information required for grant of registration u/s 12AB. As the assessee has not furnished any information or documentary evidence, the application filed by the assessee in Form No.10AB seeking registration u/s 12AB was rejected as non- maintainable.
Feeling aggrieved by the order passed by the learned CIT (Exemption), assessee is now in appeal before us.
When the matter is called upon, none appeared on behalf of the assessee.
