Being small scale businessman and lack of knowledge of taxation he has not applied for PAN. Also his Income was never taxable / there was not any transaction where PAN is mandatory.

Since you are claiming that your father does not have PAN, his income was never taxable, small scale businessman, lack of knowledge, full value of consideration received in cash, purchased flat in the name of son etc etc.....
Hence make a request application to CIT for revision petition rather than APPEAL.

no any time limit. Make sure the assessee goes personally to the office. Avoid taking any learned person with you. You innocence is your ASSET.
See the amount involved in capital gain is small. 320,000 after indexation might get inflated. Sale value is 11,40,000

Please try to understand that from whatever facts disclosed by you in the above QUERY, you have NO GROUND of APPEAL. Your side is WEAK. Ignorance of law is NEVER regarded as valid excuse, please emphasize that thought within yourself.
Revision petition can help you because your case appears to be GENUINE.
On top of that you want to go for appeal...make it before 4/10/2015 and then proceed to 264

I do agree our side is weak. Our ignorance of law is out frustration / being aggrieved as buyer has purchased in Cash for Rs. 1140000/- neither shown in his books of accounts nor in Return also he sold the same within 2 years for Rs. 21 lacs without paying any tax and we were getting notices by ITO
