PER B.R. BASKARAN (AM)

       The assessee has filed this appeal challenging the order dated
26.4.2013 passed by Director of Income Tax (Exemption), Mumbai
rejecting the application filed by the assessee seeking Registration u/s 12A
of the Income Tax Act, 1961(the Act).







2.     None appeared on behalf of the assessee though the notices were
sent by Registered Post on earlier occasion. Though the notice sent by
registered post sent on 27.10.2014 was returned back un-served, yet the
subsequent notice sent by the Registered post has not been returned

back. Hence, we proceed to dispose of the appeal ex-parte, without the
presence of assessee.


3.    We heard the ld. DR and perused the record. We notice that the
Director of Income Tax (E) has vehemently rejected the application of the
assessee that the Trust Deed does not contain proper Dissolution Clause.
From the perusal of the order passed by the DIT(E), we notice that the ld.
DIT (E) has not offered adequate opportunity to the assessee to explain
the same and/or to amend the Trust Deed. Under these set of facts, we
are of the view that this issue needs to be examined afresh by providing
proper opportunity of being heard to the assessee. Accordingly, we set
aside the order of DIT(E) and restore the same to his file with a direction
to examine the application of the assessee afresh by affording necessary
opportunity of being heard to the assessee.







4.    In the result, the appeal of the assessee is treated as allowed for
statistical purposes.
