Hi,
The assessee has appointed the CA in utmost good faith to represent him for Income tax proceeding before the IT authority. The CA has failed to perform his duties and there is penalty . in this case who will be held responsible for the negligence of the CA? Also provide some case Laws.
Thanks
Sir from my point of view CA is not responsible as the CA was authorised by the assesse to present himself for the proceedings of Income tax department on behalf of assesse so CA will not be laible for the penalty as well.
i also think that CA is not responsible but wait for expert answer
though CA is not responsible but still u can avoid proceedings for negligence of notices u/s 143(1) 143(2) 144 or 142(2A) on this ground......
