CIT(Appeal) that sufficient opportunities were provided to the assessee. There was not even a single compliance from the assessee on the given dates of hearing. Though several opportunities were given to the assessee by the Ld. CIT(Appeal), we find that in the interest of justice and for the fact that the Income Tax Laws are within the ambit of welfare legislation one more opportunity may be given to the assessee and therefore, we are of the considered view that the matter should be restored to the file of the L .....

The learned CIT(A) erred in not appreciating that the ratio laid down by Hon'ble Kolkata High Court in the case of Pradeep Kumar Malhotra [338 ITR 538] was squarely applicable in the instant case and hence, the deeming provisions u/s 2(22)(e) were not attracted to the case of the asses .....

In view of the submissions of the Ld.
