What construes as a violation of the principles of natural justice under the Income Tax Act?


Quick Summary
This Income Tax Appellate Tribunal case involves an assessee company that received shares at a premium. The Assessing Officer made an addition under Section 68 of the Act due to the assessee's non-appearance and the failure of share subscriber companies' directors to attend summons. The Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) also passed an ex-parte order. The assessee argued that notices were sent to a wrong address, preventing their appearance. The Tribunal considered restoring the case to the Assessing Officer for fresh adjudication, provided the assessee cooperates fully.
