Per SUSHMA CHOWLA, J.M. :


         This      appeal        by      the     Revenue            is    against       the     order       of     the

Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), Chandigarh dated 7.6.2010

r e l a t i n g t o a s s e s s m e n t ye a r 2 0 0 7 - 0 8 a g a i n s t t h e o r d e r p a s s e d u / s 1 4 3 ( 3 )

of Income Tax Act, 1961 (in short `the Act').


2.       The preliminary issue raised in the present appeal by the

Revenue is vide ground No.1 which reads as under:


         "1.      On the facts and in the circumstances of the
                  case and in law, the Ld. CIT(A) has erred in
                  allowing            appeal         of       the        assessee       without
                  appreciating the facts of the case."


3.       The learned D.R. for the Revenue pointed out that the assessee in

the appeal filed before the CIT (Appeals) had raised various grounds of

appeal but no issue in respect of addition of Rs.88,97,365/- was raised

before the CIT (Appeals).                       Our attention was drawn to para 4 of the

appellate order by which the CIT (Appeals) has addressed onl y the issue

of addition of Rs.88,97,365/-.
                                                           2


4.       The learned A.R. for the assessee was confronted with the above

said submissions of the learned D.R. for the Revenue and was awarded

time to address the Bench in respect of the preliminary issue raised by

the learned D.R. for the Revenue.                              In repl y the learned A.R. for the

assessee fairly submitted that though the addition was challenged by way

of ground No.1 wherein the assessee had claimed the addition made by

t h e A s s e s s i n g O f f i c e r t o b e a r b i t r a r y, b u t t h e s p e c i f i c g r o u n d o f a p p e a l

against the addition of Rs.88,97,365/- was not raised by the assessee.


5.       On perusal of the record and the orders of the Assessing Officer

and CIT (Appeals) we find that the addition made in the present case was

totaling Rs.88,97,365/-. The assessee had raised grounds of appeal Nos.

1 to 9 before the CIT (Appeals) which are incorporated under para 2 at

pages 2 to 4 of the appellate order and the same are not being reproduced

f o r t h e s a k e o f b r e v i t y. T h e p e r u s a l o f t h e s a i d g r o u n d s o f a p p e a l r a i s e d

b y the assessee before the CIT (Appeals) reflects the said grounds of

appeal being argumentative and were in the form of submission of the

assessee on various aspects of the assessment made in the hands of the

assessee.         The assessee had failed to raise specific ground of appeal

against the addition of Rs.88,97,365/-.


6.       The learned A.R. for the assessee had fairly admitted to the above

said omission. The CIT (Appeals) proceeded to dispose of the appeal by

observing vide para 4 as under:







         "4.      Since the grounds are not very specific, I would
                  address the issues taken up on the assessment
                  order which led to the addition of Rs.8897365."


7.       In the absence of specific ground of appeal raised by the assessee

and in view of the admission of the learned A.R. for the assessee we

deem it fit to restore the issue back to the file of the CIT (Appeals) to

adjudicate the issues raised by the assessee which are against the non-

compliance of procedure under section 142(3) of the Act and the reliance
                                                        3


on various affidavits etc.                     The assessee is at liberty to raise any

additional ground of appeal if so advised.                                 The CIT (Appeals) shall

decide the appeal de-novo in accordance with law after giving reasonable

opportunity of hearing to the assessee.                          The ground No.1 raised by the

Revenue is thus allowed for statistical purposes. We are not addressing

the issue on the merits of deletion made b y the CIT (Appeals).


8.      In the result, the appeal filed b y the Revenue is allowed for

statistical purposes.
