1. The learned CIT(A) has erred in law and in facts in passing the order u/s 250 of the Act dismissing the appeal filed by the appellant.
2. The learned CIT(A) has erred in law and in the facts in confirming the addition of Rs. 12,00,000/- made by the Assessing Officer as income from undisclosed sources”.
At the outset, the assessee’s appeal is barred by limitation by 324 days. Despite service of notice and various intimation given to the assessee, none appeared on the date of hearing nor any adjournment application was filed, accordingly the matter is being decided ex-parte.
2 Shri Jignesh R Shah
The assessee in support of condonation of delay had filed an affidavit, wherein, it has been stated that the assessee had forgotten to send the appellate order to the Chartered Accountant for preparation and filing of appeals due to his busyness and it is only when penalty proceedings were initiated that the assessee realized about filing of appeal and hence sent the order to his Chartered Accountant for further action. Such an explanation prima facie does not appear to be genuine and bona fide ground or reason for condoning the delay of 324 days. Accordingly, the appeal filed by the assessee being barred by limitation is treated as unadmitted and is hereby dismissed in limine.
In the result, appeal of the assessee stands dismissed. Order pronounced in the open court on 30th November, 2015.
