Tribunal overturns appeal dismissal, orders review by Commissioner (Appeals), grants appellant chance to contest.
The Tribunal set aside the dismissal of the appeal as time-barred and directed the Commissioner (Appeals) to review the appeal on its merits. The appellant was granted the opportunity to contest the case further.
Issues: 1. Appeal filed by the appellant - Time-barred or not
Analysis: The appellant received a notice of recovery of dues towards demand confirmed by an Order in Original. The appellant claimed they did not receive any further communication of the passing of the Order in Original until they received a copy in February 2020. The appeal challenging the Order in Original was filed within three months of receiving the copy. The Commissioner (Appeals) dismissed the appeal as time-barred, stating the Order in Original was dispatched in April 2019. The appellant argued that mere sending by speed post does not suffice as communication of the Order in Original, citing relevant legal provisions and case laws. The appellant requested a chance to contest the case on merits.
The appellant's counsel argued that the Order in Original was served only in February 2020, as evidenced by a letter from the Revenue Recovery Unit. The department contended that the speed post receipt included in the impugned order proved service of the Order in Original. The issue revolved around whether the Order in Original was effectively communicated to the appellant. The Tribunal noted that the department should ensure delivery of the Order to the addressee and track the consignment to establish service. The Tribunal found the dismissal of the appeal on the ground of being time-barred unjustified and remanded the matter to the Commissioner (Appeals) to consider the appeal on merits.
In conclusion, the Tribunal set aside the dismissal of the appeal on the basis of being time-barred and directed the Commissioner (Appeals) to review the appeal on its merits. The appellant was granted the opportunity to contest the case further.
