Facts of the Case

The appeal ITA No. 1932/2010, filed by the appellant Ajay Vohra, was listed along with ITA No. 1931/2010 for hearing on 18.04.2011. Counsel for the appellant stated that instructions had been received to withdraw ITA No. 1932/2010. The delay in filing ITA No. 1931/2010 had been condoned, and it was scheduled for hearing on 20.04.2011 in the category of “regular matters”.

Due to inadvertence, the order for ITA No. 1931/2010 was placed in the file of ITA No. 1932/2010 and vice versa.
