ORDER
PER N.K. BILLAIYA, AM:
This appeal by the assessee is preferred against the order of the CIT(A)-42, New Delhi dated Nil pertaining to A.Y.2018-19.
2. The grievance of the assessee read as under :-
1. That on the facts and in the circumstances of the case and in law, the Ld. CIT(A) has erred in upholding the Appellant as 'Asesssee in Default' u/s 200A of the Act.2
2. That on the facts and in the circumstances of the case and in law, the Ld. CIT(A) has erred in holding that CPC-TDS is correct in charging short deduction default amounting to Rs. 4,67,41,733 and interest u/s 201(1A) amounting to Rs. 40,38,885/-.
3. That on the facts and in the circumstances of the case and in law, the Ld. CIT(A) has failed to appreciate the fact that appellant has duly deducted tax u/s 44BB of the Act as applicable in respect of payments made by the Appellant to various non-
resident contractors and therefore it could not be said to be 'assessee in default.
4. That on the facts and in the circumstances of the case and in law, the Ld. CIT(A) has erred in remanding issue back to Assessing Officer-TDS (hereinafter referred as 'AO- TDS') instead of deciding the issue on merits on his own.
3. At the very outset the authorized representative of the assessee moved the following application :-
