Case Laws Income Tax HC
The High Court held that denial of opportunity for personal hearing through video conferencing to the petitioner assessee, despite a specific request, violated the principles of natural justice. Since no standards or procedures were framed by the competent authority for approving such requests, the statutory authority was bound to afford a personal hearing to the assessee through video conferencing. Consequently, the impugned orders were set aside due to this infraction.
