2. At the outset, it is seen from the records that notice has been issued to the assessee on 04.03.2015 however, on the date of hearing i.e. 01.04.2015 none appeared on behalf of assessee nor filed any adjournment petition. This shows that assessee is not interested in prosecuting this appeal.
2.1 In view of these facts, it is clear that the assessee is not interested in prosecuting this appeal, and accordingly, following the decision of the Multiplan (India) (P) Ltd., (38 ITD
320), we dismiss this appeal filed by assessee for want of prosecution.
3. In the result, appeal filed by assessee is dismissed for non prosecution.
Pronounced in the open Court on this the 10th day of April, 2015.
