Rajesh Bhatia, New Delhi vs Assessee

2. At the time of hearing, neither anybody appeared on behalf of the assessee-appellant nor any adjournment application has been filed before us. The notice of hearing was served by registered post. On earlier several occasions also, i.e., 22.12.2011, 02.05.2012, 21.08.2012, 28.11.2013 and 15.05.2014, the matter had been adjourned at the request of the learned AR of the assessee. In these facts, we are of the view that the assessee is not interested in pursuing his appeal filed 2 ITA-2039/Del/2011

before the Tribunal, which is accordingly dismissed in limine. While taking this view, we derive support from the decision of Delhi Bench of ITAT in the case of CIT vs. Multiplan India (P.) Ltd.

- [1991] 38 ITD 320 (Delhi).

3. In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee is dismissed in limine.

Decision pronounced in the open Court on 6th May, 2015.
