C.O.No.05/CTK/2017 (in ITA No.47 /CTK/2017) Assessment Year : 2008-09 Page2 | 3 3. It was fairly agreed by both the sides that the assessment has been completed exparte u/s.144 of the Act. The assessee was unable to represent and produce all the details before the Assessing Officer. It was fairly agreed by both the sides that the revenue’s appeal in ITA No.47/CTK/2017 has been dismissed on merits. It was further submitted by the ld CIT DR that the expenses disallowed on estimated basis was on account of failure on the part of the assessee to produce all the vouchers before the AO. 4. In reply, ld AR submitted that the assessee is a Government undertaking and all the bills and vouchers are available. It was the submission that he had no objection if the issue is restored to the file of the AO for re-adjudication. 5. We have considered the rival submissions. Perusal of the assessment order shows that the Assessing Officer has made disallowance on estimate basis at 20% in the absence of books of accounts and bills and vouchers. It is also an admitted fact that the assessee did not produce the same before the AO. This being so, we are of the view that the issue of the estimated disallowance of expenditure must be restored to the file of the Assessing officer for re-adjudication and we do so. C.O.No.05/CTK/2017 (in ITA No.47 /CTK/2017) Assessment Year : 2008-09 Page3 | 3 6. In the result, appeal of the assessee is partly allowed for statistical purposes. Order dictated and pronounced in the open court on 7/7/2022.
