PER SHRI ANIL CHATURVEDI,A.M.
1. Through this stay petition, Assessee wants us to extend the stay granted on 13.06.2014.
2. At the time of hearing, learned counsel of the Assessee submitted that appeal of the Assessee could not be disposed of by the Tribunal despite the fact that the Assessee never sought adjournment. She therefore urged that the stay 2 S.A No 12/A/15 (in ITA No. 787/A/14) . A.Y. 2010-2011
granted on 13.06.2014 may kindly be extended for further period of six months or disposal of appeal whichever is earlier.
3. The learned D.R. on the other hand vehemently opposed this prayer of the Assessee.
4. We have heard the rival submissions and perused the material on record. In view of the fact that there was no fault on the part of the Assessee in the appeal being not disposed off by the Tribunal, we are of the view that Assessee deserves an extension of stay. We therefore grant extension of stay for another period of six months or disposal of appeal whichever is earlier.
5. In the result, the stay petition is allowed.
Order pronounced in Open Court on 02 - 02 - 2015.
