This appeal by the assessee is preferred against the order of the NFAC, Delhi dated 23.12.2024 for A.Y 2017-18.
The only issue arising out of the 5 grounds of appeal raised by the assessee is against the addition of Rs. 5,45,00,00/- made by the Assessing Officer.

On appeal before the CIT(A), the assessee failed and the additional evidences submitted before the CIT(A) were declined to be considered u/r 46A.

The ld. DR on the other hand did not seriously object to the same.
We have heard the rival submissions and have perused the relevant material on record. We find substance in the arguments of the ld. counsel for the assessee. We are, therefore, of the considered view that Page 2 of 4 issues to the file of the ld. CIT(A) for adjudication afresh after affording sufficient opportunity of being heard to the assessee.
The CIT(A) is directed to consider the additional evidences and documents and decide the issues afresh after getting report from the Assessing Officer and affording reasonable and adequate opportunity of being heard to the assessee.
