Since the matter can be decided in the absence of the assessee, we reject the adjournment petitions and proceed to dispose of the appeals on merits. 3. Shri Charan Dass, ld Sr DR appeared for the revenue. 4. We have heard ld Sr DR and perused the materials on record. A perusal of orders of the ld CIT(E) show that the assessee had filed condonation application for delay in filing Form 10BB for the assessment years 2017-18 to 2020-21. The assessee was requested to furnish certain information justifying its application for condonation of delay. As there was no sufficient reason which prevented the assessee from filing the same within the due date, the ld CIT(E) rejected the applications and dismissed the appeals. Against the rejection of appeals by the ld CIT(E), the assessee has filed appeals before the Tribunal. 5. We observe that no appeal against the order passed by the ld Commissioner under section 119(2)(b) is maintainable before the Tribunal. We further note that against such type of orders i.e. order passed under section 119()(b) can be appealed directly to the Secretary, CBDT or can be challenged through Writ before the Hon’ble Jurisdictional High Court. Therefore, we reject the appeals treating the same as infructuous.. ITA Nos.259 to 262/CTK/2023 Assessment Years : 2017-18 to 2020-2021 Page3 | 3 6.
