Manoj Kumar Aggarwal (Accountant Member)
1. Aforesaid appeal by assessee for Assessment Year (AY) 2017-18
arises out of an ex-parte order passed by Learned Commissioner of
Income Tax (Appeals), National Faceless Appeal Centre (NFAC), Delhi
[CIT(A)] on 27-12-2023 in the matter of an assessment framed by Ld.
Assessing Officer [AO] on best judgment basis u/s 144 of the Act on 24-
12-2019. The assessee has failed to appear before any of lower
authorities. The registry has noted a delay of 29 days in the appeal,
which stand condoned.
2. During hearing, Ld. AR has pleaded for another opportunity of
hearing which has been opposed by Ld. Sr. DR.
3. Though the assessee has remained negligent, however, keeping
in mind the principle of natural justice, we deem it fit to grant another
opportunity to the assessee to substantiate its case. Therefore, we set
aside the impugned order and restore the assessment back to the file of
Ld. AO for de novo assessment after affording reasonable opportunity of
hearing to the assessee. The assessee is directed to substantiate its
case and supply the requisite information forthwith failing which Ld. AO
shall be at liberty to proceed with assessment on merits on the basis of
material on record.
4. The appeal stand allowed for statistical purposes.
