ITA No.02/CTK/2022 2 3. In reply, ld. Sr. DR vehemently opposed to the contention of the ld.AR and submitted that substantial opportunities have been granted to the assessee and he has not cooperated. It was the submission that the order of the ld. CIT(A) is liable to be upheld. 4. We have considered rival submissions. 5. Admittedly, the period of Covid caused a lot of problem to the assessees. There has been no cooperation on the part of the assessee before the AO as well as before the CIT(A) on account of Covid issues and health issues. This being so, in the interest of natural justice, the issues in this appeal are restored to the file of AO for readjudication after granting opportunity of being heard to the assessee. The assessee is also directed to furnish the details and cooperate with the AO for early disposal of the case. Thus, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. 6. In the result, appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. Order dictated and pronounced in the open court on 11/07/2022.
