  • The assessee or the assessing office could either present personally or via an authorized representative, on the hearing date.
  • The Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) either hears the petition or might suspend the same over time as per his consideration.
  • Prior to issuing the order the commissioner of Income-tax (Appeal) might either or may direct the assessing officer to perform the important investigations since he might deem fit and notify the outcome directly to him.
