The Hon'ble Patna High Court in the case of Nav Nirman Construction v. Union of India [CWJC No. 16940 of 2023 dated December 6, 2023] set aside the appellate order and directed that the Appeal be restored before the appellate authority, thereby holding that appellate authority is not empowered to dismiss the appeal for non-prosecution due to non-appearance of Assessee or authorised representative as appellate authority has a duty and obligation to take into consideration the merits of the matter, examine the grounds raised by the appellant even if the appellant or authorised representative presence is not recorded; and decide the issue on merits.
