                              ORDER

PER RAJENDRA SINGH (AM) :



      This appeal by the assessee is directed against the order dated

3.3.2011 of CIT(A) for the assessment year 2008-09. The assessee in

this appeal has raised the issue regarding depreciation on goodwill.

However, none appeared in the present case when the appeal came up

for hearing today (7.6.2012) though the assessee had been given notice

of hearing well in advance through order-sheet noting dated 15.3.2012.

Neither some one appeared on behalf of the assessee nor any

adjournment    application had been received.      It can therefore be

reasonably concluded that the assessee is not interested in pursuing the
                                      2                     ITA No. 4054/M/2011
                                                        Assessment Year:2008-09







appeal. The appeal does not mean only filing of memorandum of appeal

but also pursuing it effectively as held by Hon'ble Supreme Court in

case of B.N.Bhatacharjee and Anr (118 ITR 461) (at pages 477/478). In

such cases where an appellant is not interested in prosecution of appeal

Court/Tribunal have inherent power to dismiss the proceedings for non

prosecution as held by Hon'ble High Court of Mumbai in case of M/s

Chemipol V/s Union of India in Excise Appeal No.62/2009. On the facts

of this case we are convinced that the assessee is not interested in

pursuing the appeal. We, therefore, dismiss the appeal of the assessee

as unadmited.

2.        In the result, assessee's appeal stands dismissed.

The order was pronounced in ope n court on 7.6. 2012.
