This is an Appeal by the Assessee directed against the Order dated 11/09/2020 by the Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemptions), Bhopal (“CIT(E)”, for short) under section 119(2)(b) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 („the Act‟, hereinafter) for assessment year (AY) 2018-19.
At the very outset, it was observed by the Bench that the assessee has, and only rightly so, moved an application (through it‟s counsel, Shri Bardia), seeking permission for withdrawal of the instant appeal as the same is not maintainable
(A.Y. 2018-19) Shri Namiyun Parashvanath Jain Swetamber Manidhari Trust vs. CIT(Exemption) before the Appellater Tribunal. The ld. CIT-DR did not fairly object to the said request by the assessee.
An order u/s. 119(2)(b) of the Act denying condonation of delay is not an order appealable u/s. 253 of the Act. An appeal thereagainst before the Tribunal is this a mistake and, thus, is being rightly withdrawn as nont maintainable by the assessee-appellant. We, therefore, have no hesitation in according permission for the said withdrawal. We decide accordingly.
In the result, assessee‟s appeal is dismissed as not maintainable.
