CIT(A)/NFAC, Delhi dt. 25/05/2023 pertaining to Assessment Year 2012-13. 2. The main grievance of the assessee in the present appeal relates to the ex-parte order passed by the Ld. CIT(A)/ NFAC, Delhi in violation of principles of natural justice. It was submitted that the notices were not addressed to the correct email id as specified in Form 35 and as a result, the assessee was prevented by sufficient cause in responding to the said notices. It was submitted that the assessee may be provided one more opportunity to represent her case and be heard on merits and the matter may be set- aside to the file of the ld CIT(A) to decide the same afresh. 3. In his rival submissions, the Ld. Sr. DR supported the orders of the authorities below. 2 4. We have considered the submissions of both the parties and perused the material available on the record. Keeping in view the fact that the assessee was prevented by sufficient cause in responding to the notices and the principles of natural justice, we believe that the assessee deserve one more opportunity to represent her case and deem it appropriate to set aside the case back to the file of Ld. CIT(A) to be adjudicated afresh in accordance with law after providing due and reasonable opportunity of being heard to the assessee. 5. In the result, appeal of the Assessee is allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced in the open Court on 11/03/2024.
