                           IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY
                              ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION
                                INCOME TAX APPEAL NO. 327 OF 2004

                    ABG Heavy Industries Ltd.                           …Appellant
                          Versus
                   Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax,        Circle …Respondent
                   3(1) Mumbai.

                   None for the Appellant.
                   Mr. P. C. Chottaray with Ms. Sangita Choure, for the Respondent.

                                                      GAUTAM A. ANKHAD, JJ.
                                        DATED:        8th OCTOBER, 2026.
                   PC:-

                   1.     None appears for the Appellant when the matter is called
                   out.

                   2.     We find that the Appellant was absent even on three
                   previous occasions, i.e., on 23rd April, 2026, 2nd July, 2026 and 13th
                   August, 2026. As such, we are of the view that the Appellant is no
                   longer interested to pursue this Appeal.    The Appeal is, therefore,
                   dismissed for non-prosecution.

                                                                                           {
