Against certain adjustments made in the intimation, the assessee filed appeals before the Ld. CIT(A) for all the three AY(s). 4. The Ld. CIT(A) has dismissed the three appeals vide his separate order(s) dated 28.02.2023 against which the assessee is in appeal before the Tribunal taking common ground stated earlier. 5. None attended the hearing fixed before the Tribunal on 05.12.2023 for and/or on behalf of the assessee. The Ld. Sr. DR was, however, present. So we decided to proceed to adjudicate the appeals after hearing the Ld. Sr. DR. 6. The Ld. Sr. DR suggested that since appeal(s) have not been decided by the Ld. CIT(A) on merits, it would be expedient if the matter is sent back to the Ld. CIT(A) for deciding the appeals on merits. We agree. It would be, in the interest of justice and fair play if the matter is restored to the file of Ld. CIT(A) to decide them denovo on merits after allowing opportunity to the assessee to present his case. We order accordingly. 7. For statistical purposes, these three appeals of the assessee are treated as allowed. Order pronounced in the open court on 14 th February, 2024. sd/- sd/- (N.K.
