Subject: Application for Admission of Delayed Appeal – Condonation of Delay in Submission

Respected Sir/Madam,

I am submitting this application to seek condonation for the delay in filing my appeal in the matter of [Your Name] vs. Income Tax Department regarding the assessment year [Mention Year].

I received the order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) on [Date], which I intended to appeal against. Consequently, I requested my auditors, Messrs. [Auditor’s Firm Name], Chartered Accountants, to file an appeal before the Hon’ble Appellate Tribunal. However, due to the heavy workload of filing income tax returns, the appeal filing was delayed.

I am enclosing my affidavit detailing the circumstances of the delay. I kindly request the Hon’ble Appellate Tribunal to condone this short delay and allow my appeal for admission.

Thank you for your consideration.

Yours faithfully,
[Your Name]
[Your Signature]
