DR सुनवाईकीतारीख/Date of Hearing : 24-06-2024 घोषणाकीतारीख /Date of Pronouncement : 03-07-2024 आदेश / O R D E R Manoj Kumar Aggarwal (Accountant Member) 1. The grievance of the assessee trust in captioned appeal is confirmation of an assessment order passed by Ld. Assessing officer (AO) on 17-12-2019. In the order, Ld. AO had denied accumulation of income u/s 11(2). Upon further appeal Ld. Addl. / JCIT (Appeals)-3, Mumbai [CIT)] has confirmed the same which is in further challenge before us. From page-4 of impugned order, it could be seen that the assessee has failed to appear during first appellate proceedings despite being provided with several opportunities of hearing. Accordingly, the assessment was confirmed against which the assessee is in further appeal before us. The Ld. AR has prayed for another opportunity of hearing which has been opposed by Ld. Sr. DR. 2. Though the assessee has remained negligent, however, keeping in mind the principle of natural justice, we deem it fit to grant another opportunity to the assessee to substantiate its case. The same would come at a cost of Rs.2,000/- which shall be deposited by the assessee within 30 days from the date of receipt of this order to ‘Tamil Nadu State Legal Services Authority’ at Hon’ble High Court of Madras. The proof of the same shall be furnished by the assessee to learned CIT(A) who shall proceed for de novo adjudication after affording opportunity of hearing to the assessee. The assessee is directed to substantiate its case forthwith failing which Ld. CIT(A) shall be at liberty to proceed with disposal of appeal on merits on the basis of material on record. 3. The appeal stand allowed for statistical purposes.
