3.

Ground No. 1 is not pressed, hence dismissed as not pressed.

4.

The sum and substance of the grievance of the assessee in Ground Nos. 2 to 8 is that the ld. CIT(A) was not justified in passing a non-speaking order and that too without application of mind.

5.

At the very outset, the ld. counsel for the assessee submitted that the ld. CIT(A) was not justified in passing a non-speaking order without due application of mind. The ld. counsel for the assessee further contended that the assessment order deserves to be quashed as the same was passed without giving proper opportunity in contravention to principles of natural justice. The ld. counsel for the assessee prayed for restoration of the appeal.

6.

The ld. DR relied upon the order of the ld. CIT(A).

7.

We have heard the rival submissions and have perused the relevant material on record. We are of the considered view that the CIT(A) has not adequately adjudicated on the replies furnished by the assessee on the various discrepancies found by the Assessing Officer. Since the issue has not been adjudicated by the ld. CIT(A) in a proper manner, therefore, in the interest of justice and fair play, we deem it fit to restore the appeal to the file of the CIT(A). The CIT(A) is directed to rehear the appeal after affording a reasonable and adequate opportunity of being heard to the assessee.

8.

In the result, the appeal of the assessee in ITA No. 2759/DEL/2019 is allowed for statistical purposes.
