(प्रत्यथी / Respondent) ननधााररती की ओर से /Assessee by : Shri Saneep Kumar Jena, Advocate राजस्व की ओर से /Revenue by : Shri S.C.Mohanty, Sr. DR स ु नवाई की तारीख / Date of Hearing : 24/07/2024 घोषणा की तारीख/Date of Pronouncement : 24/07/2024 आदेश / O R D E R Per Bench : This is an appeal filed by the assessee against the order dated 21.03.2024, passed by the CIT(A), National Faceless Appeal Centre (NFAC), Delhi, passed in I.T.Appeal No.ITBA/NFAC/S/250/2023- 24/1063083129(1), for the assessment year 2017-2018. 2. Ld. AR submitted that during the course of assessment proceedings, the AO asked the assessee certain details regarding his claim, however, the assessee could not submit the documentary evidence before the AO, resulting into making additions on account of unexplained cash deposits and on account of receipts. Ld. AR submitted that the assessee before the ld. CIT(A) has filed statement of facts along with grounds of appeal but the ld. CIT(A) without considering the same dismissed the appeal of the assessee. Therefore, the ld. AR prayed that ITA No.236/CTK/2024 2 one more opportunity may be provided to the assessee to represent its case and substantiate its claim before the AO. 3. In reply, ld. Sr. DR vehemently supported the orders of the ld. CIT(A) and the ld. AO. It was the submission that restoring the matter to the file of AO would be, in fact, giving the assessee a second round which should not be granted. 4. We have considered the rival submissions. A perusal of the assessment order clearly shows that the assessee could not furnish the details as asked for by the AO during the course of assessment proceedings. Further on perusal of the order of the ld. CIT(A), clearly shows that notices were issued to the assessee by the ld. CIT(A), however, no compliance has been made by the assessee during the appellate proceedings. As no compliance has been made before either of the authorities below, therefore, in the interest of justice, the issues in this appeal are restored to the file of the ld. AO for readjudication after granting the assessee adequate opportunities to substantiate its claim. 5. In the result, appeal of the assessee is partly allowed for statistical purposes. Order dictated and pronounced in the open court on 24/07/2024.
