Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, “D” BENCH, AHMEDABAD
Before: DR. BRR KUMAR & SHRI SIDDHARTHA NAUTIYAL
PER DR. BRR KUMAR - ACCOUNTANT MEMBER:
This appeal has been filed by the Assessee against the order passed by the Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeals), (in short “Ld. CIT(A)”), National Faceless Appeal Centre, (in short “NFAC”), Delhi, vide order dated 19.12.2023 passed for A.Y. 2018-19. 2. The Assessee has taken the following grounds of appeal:-
“1.1 The order passed by U/s. 250 on 19.12.2023 by NFAC [CIT(A)], Delhi (for short ‘NFAC’) upholding the addition of Rs.1,01,02,000/- made by A.O as unexplained investment towards purchase of immovable property is wholly illegal, unlawful and against the principles of natural justice.
1 The NFAC has grievously erred in law and or ono facts in not appreciating that there could not be compliance to the notices claimed to the issued mainly on account of failure of the mall/messages informed by the concerned party so that she was unaware about the same. Thus, there was a sufficient cause for failure to comply with the notices claimed to be issued by lower authorities.
1 The NFAC has grievously erred in law and or on facts in upholding on the ground that “no documents were produced before me in support of his GOA or to point-wise Asst.Year –2018-19 - 2– rebuttal of the assessment order”, though the appellant had given detailed explanation about the source of investment with necessary documents in the appeal memo itself. Thus, the same have been completely ignored by NFAC while dismissing the appeal. Therefore, the impugned order should be quashed.
2 That the in the facts and circumstances of the case, NFAC ought not to have upheld the addition of Rs.1,01,02,000/- when the appellant had given detailed explanation about the source of investment with necessary documents in the appeal memo itself. It is, therefore, prayed that the addition of Rs.1,01,02,000/- upheld by the NFAC CIT(A) may kindly be deleted.”
In this case we find that the Ld. CIT(A) has passed an ex-parte order going to non-furnishing of the supporting evidences before him. The Ld. CIT(A) has also issued notices on 25.09.2023, 06.10.2023, 19.10.2023, 08.11.2023 and 24.11.2023. 4. Before us, the Ld. Counsel for the assessee submitted that giving an opportunity for due compliances would be made before the Ld. CIT(A). He also submitted that some of the evidences have been filed before the Ld. CIT(A) which have not been considered while passing the order.
The Ld. D.R. fairly accepted for the proposal, hence in the interest of justice, the matter is remanded to the Ld. CIT(A) to adjudicate the issue on merits of the case after considering the submissions made by the assessee.
In the result, the appeal of the assesse is allowed for statistical purpose.
