Condonation of delay requires sufficient cause, but appeals raising matters requiring examination on merits should not be excluded solely because of a technical limitation. The material explains that a pedantic refusal to consider reasons for delay may undermine merits-based adjudication, particularly where the assessee challenged denial of exemption during processing under section 143(1).
