N. PRASAD, J.M. : 1. Through this Misc. application the assessee prays for recall of the ex-parte order passed by the Tribunal in ITA. No. 4908/Del/2018 dated 14.05.2019. 2. The ld. Counsel for the assessee submits that when the matter was called for hearing on 14.05.2019 the assessee’s counsel, Shri Mukul Gupta, who was to argue the matter was unable to present himself for the hearing as the counsel reached M.A. No. 563/Del/2019 2 little late to the Tribunal due to heavy traffic jam and by the time the counsel reached the Tribunal, the Bench had already arisen for the day. The ld. Counsel submits that there has been a reasonable and sufficient cause for not being present himself by the ld. Counsel when the matter was called for hearing on 14.05.2019. Therefore, since the non-appearance of the counsel is neither willful nor deliberate, it is prayed that the ex-parte order passed by the Tribunal be recalled in the interest of justice. 3. The ld. DR has no serious objection in recalling the appeal. 4. On hearing both the sides and perusing the orders of the Tribunal and the reasons given for non-appearance of the ld. Counsel, I am of the view that the order of the Tribunal is to be recalled in the interest of justice. Hence, the ex-parte order passed by the Tribunal in ITA. No. 4908/Del/2018 is recalled and the Registry is directed to fix the appeal for hearing in due course and issue notice to the parties. 5. In the result, the Miscellaneous application filed by the assessee, is allowed. Order pronounced in the open court on : 10/06/2022. Sd/- ( C. N.
