The ITAT set aside the NFAC order due to the denial of video conferencing without sufficient justification. The petitioner had requested a virtual hearing, but the request was refused by the National Faceless Assessment Centre (NFAC) without providing a valid reason. The Tribunal emphasized that denial of such requests must be based on valid grounds and ordered that the matter be reconsidered with the option for a video conference hearing.
