None appeared on behalf of the assessee at the time of hearing. ITA No.181/Ind/2022 (Rajshree Singh Deo vs. ITO) Asst.Year.– 2008-09 - 2 - 3. We have heard the Ld.DR. Ld. DR has brought to our notice that in the appellate proceedings in spite of repeated opportunity given to the assessee no explanation in support of her claim was furnished, which is, in fact, appearing at paragraph No.6.3 of the order impugned before us. Thus, the submission made by the Ld.DR seems to be acceptable. However, in the present facts and circumstances for the ends of justice, we think it fit and proper to grant a further opportunity of being heard to the assessee to represent her case in support of her claim before the Ld.AO. Thus, we set aside this issue to the file of the Ld.AO with a direction upon him to consider the same afresh and to pass a reasoned order upon granting opportunity of being heard to the assessee and also to consider the evidence which assessee may choose to file at the time of hearing of the matter. 5. In the result, assessee’s appeal is allowed for statistical purposes.
