Before us in form number 36 also the assessee has given the same email address. Therefore, non-receipt of the notice cannot be believed. However, it is also the fact that the learned CIT A should have given a detailed reason on the ground of appeal raised by the assessee in terms of provisions of section 250 (6) of the act.

The builder has also given a confirmation by letter dated 9/2/2021 where the name of the project has changed to Grand Sethia now residential property. Therefore, the claim of the assessee is that stamp duty value may be considered as on 1/7/2016, which is the date of allotment of the flat coupled with payment of consideration also.

In view of the above facts and in the interest of natural justice we restore the appeal of the assessee back to the learned CIT With a direction to the assessee that as soon as the window is available for submission of detailed by the learned CIT A, assessee must submit the detail within the prescribed time which may be considered by the learned CIT A and decide issue on the merits of the case after giving proper opportunity of hearing, if asked.
