As reasonable opportunity was denied to the assessee which is gross violation of the natural justice. The assessee was prevented from submitting the evidence before the ld.CIT(A) in due appeal proceedings. We fully relied on the order of Premkumar Arjundas Luthra (HUF) [ 2016 (5) TMI 290 - BOMBAY HIGH COURT] .

In fact with effect from 1st June, 2001 the power of the CIT(A) to set aside the order of the Assessing Officer and restore it to the Assessing Officer for passing a fresh order stands withdrawn. Therefore, it would be noticed that the powers of the CIT(A) is co-terminus with that of the Assessing Officer i.e. he can do all that Assessing Officer could do. Therefore just as it is not open to the Assessing Officer to not complete the assessment by allowing the assessee to withdraw its return of income, it is not open to the assessee in appeal to withdraw and/or the CIT(A) to dismiss the appeal on account of non-prosecution of the appeal by t .....
