At the very outset, the ld. Counsel for the Assessee submitted that it is an ex-parte order passed by the ld. CIT(A). In his order the CIT(A) has not given any finding on merit, rather because of non- appearance / non-response from the Assessee, he has simply dismissed the appeal. Therefore, it was requested that the matter may be remanded back to the file of the CIT(A).
36-Chd-2024 – Mansa Ram, Solan 3
The ld. DR had no objection to it.
We have considered the submissions and the arguments of the ld. Counsel of the Assessee and the ld. DR. We also find that the ld. CIT(A) has not passed the order on merit on the basis of material available on record, therefore, we are of the considered view that to meet the end of justice, the matter should be remanded back to the CIT(A). Accordingly, keeping in view the principles of natural justice, the appeal is restored back to the file of the ld. CIT(A) for adjudication afresh on merits, in accordance with law, on affording due and adequate opportunity of hearing to the Assessee. The Assessee, no doubt, shall cooperate in the fresh proceedings before the CIT(A). All pleas available under the law shall remain so available to the assessee. Ordered accordingly.
In the result, for statistical purposes, the appeal of the Assessee stands allowed. Order pronounced on 29.07.2024.
