Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, “SMC” BENCH, AHMEDABAD
Before: Shri Pramod Kumar]
These two appeals by different assessees are directed against separate orders of the Learned Commissioner of Income-Tax (Appeals)-4, Vadodara of even dated 10.06.2015 for Assessment Years 2011-12 & 2012-13.
In these cases, notice of hearing was sent by Registered Post with Acknowledgement Due to the assessee on 28.07.2017 fixing the date of hearing on 17.08.2017. On 17.08.2017, the cases were adjourned to 22.11.2017. However, today, i.e. on 22.11.2017, when the cases were called for hearing, none appeared on behalf of the assessee and neither any adjournment application was filed. This shows that the assessee is not interested in pursuing with his appeals. Therefore, in view of the decision of Hon'ble Madhya Pradesh High Court in the case of Estate of Late Tukojirao Holkar vs. CWT (1997) 223 ITR 480 (M.P.) and the decision of Hon'ble Delhi Tribunal in the case of CIT vs. Multiplan India (Pvt.) Ltd., 38 ITD 320 (Delhi), I dismiss the appeals of the assessee in limine.
The assessee may, if so advised, file an application before this Tribunal for restoration of his appeals and hearing on merits by showing reasonable cause for not appearing before the Tribunal on the date of hearing. The Bench, if so

satisfied, may recall its order and restore the appeals to their original numbers for hearing on merits.
In the result, appeals of the assessee are dismissed in limine.
