These assessee’s twin appeals for assessment year 2013-2014 arise against the order of the CIT(A)-National Faceless Appeal Centre, Delhi’s DIN & order no.ITBA/ NFAC/S/250/2023-24/1063086458(1) and 1063086747(1), both dated 21.03.2024, in proceedings u/s.147 r.w.s.144 2 ITA.Nos.2415 & 2416/MUM./2024 and sec.271(1)(c) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (in short “the Act”). Case called twice. None appears at assessee’s behest. It is accordingly proceeded ex-parte. 2. It emerges during the course of hearing that the learned CIT(A)-NFAC’s order in assessee’s former appeal ITA.No.2416/MUM./2024 has passed ex-parte and that too without framing points for determination followed by a detailed adjudication thereof. Faced with the situation, we deem it appropriate in the larger interest of justice to restore the assessee’s instant appeal back to the CIT(A)-NFAC for it’s afresh adjudication, preferably within three effective opportunities of hearing, subject to the rider that it shall be the taxpayer’s onus and responsibility only to file and prove all the relevant facts in consequential proceedings. Ordered accordingly. 3. Same order to follow in assessee’s penalty appeal ITA.No.2415/MUM./2024 for the assessment year 2013- 2014 being consequential in nature. Ordered accordingly. 3 ITA.Nos.2415 & 2416/MUM./2024 4. These assessee’s twin appeals ITA.Nos.2416 & 2415/Mum./2024 are allowed for statistical purposes in above terms.
