Brief facts of the case are that the appellant is an individual deriving Income from other sources, House Property etc. The Return of Income for the A.Y. 2015-16 was filed on 22.03.2017 declaring total income of Rs.77,280/- after claiming deduction u/s.54B of the Act. Against the said return of income, the assessment was completed by the Assessing Officer (AO) vide order dated 18.12.2017 passed u/s.143(3) of the Act at a total income of Rs.15,26,720/-. While doing so, the AO disallowed the claim of deduction u/s.54B amounting to Rs.14,49,444/- Assessee by : Shri Sharad A. Shah Revenue by : Shri Abdesh Kumar Jha Date of hearing : 13.06.2024 Date of pronouncement : 13.06.2024 ITA No.829/PUN/2024 2 on the ground that the assessee had not purchased the agricultural but a plot of land. 3. Being aggrieved, an appeal was filed before the CIT(A) who vide impugned order confirmed the action of the AO. 4. Being aggrieved, the appellant is in appeal before the Tribunal in the present appeal. 5. The ld. AR submits that the CIT(A) though extracted the written submissions made by the assessee, had failed to dwell into those written submissions. Therefore, it is prayed that the matter may be remanded to the file of CIT(A). 6. On the other hand, the ld. Sr. DR has no serious objection for remand of the matter. 7. I heard the rival submissions and perused the relevant material on record. Considering the fact that the CIT(A) while dismissing the appeal of the assessee had not gone through the written submissions, I deem it appropriate to remit the matter to the file of CIT(A) and direct the CIT(A) to pass a speaking order by dwelling into the written submissions filed by the assessee. Needless to say, the assessee may be given due opportunity of being heard in accordance with law. I order accordingly. 8. In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee is partly allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced on this 13 th day of June, 2024. Sd/- (S. S.
