2 ITA No. 2599 & 2600/Mum/2026 Chinchpokli Sarvajanik Utsav Mandal Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemptions), Mumbai [hereinafter referred to as “CIT(E)”], whereby the application filed by the assessee for renewal of registration under section 12AB of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and approval under section 80G of the Act came to be rejected. Since common facts are involved in both the appeals and both the appeals were heard together, the same are being disposed of by way of this consolidated order for the sake of convenience and brevity. 2. At the time of hearing, the learned Authorised Representative submitted a letter dated 21.05.2026 seeking withdrawal of both the appeals. In the said application, it has been submitted that pursuant to the decision of the Hon’ble Bombay High Court in the case of The Chamber of Tax Consultants vs. The Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemptions), the learned CIT(E) has already granted registration under section 12A and approval under section 80G of the Act to the assessee and, therefore, the grievance raised in the present appeals no longer survives for adjudication. 3. For the sake of ready reference, the relevant contents of the withdrawal application are reproduced herein below: “In this connection, we humbly submit that in pursuant to the decision of the Bombay High Court in the case of The Chamber of Tax Consultants vs The Commissioner of Income Tax (Exemptions), the Ld. CIT(E) have perused the documents of the appellant and granted registration under section 12A and approval under section 80G of the Income-tax Act, 1961 which formed the basic foundation of the matter.

3 ITA No. 2599 & 2600/Mum/2026 Chinchpokli Sarvajanik Utsav Mandal In view of the foregoing, we request your Honor to kindly allow the appellant to withdraw the appeal.” 4. The learned Departmental Representative did not raise any objection to the request made by the assessee for withdrawal of the appeals.

5.

We have heard the rival submissions and perused the material available on record. Considering the contents of the withdrawal application filed by the assessee and in absence of any objection from the Revenue, we permit the assessee to withdraw the present appeals. Accordingly, both the appeals filed by the assessee are dismissed as withdrawn.

6.

In the result, both the appeals of the assessee are dismissed as withdrawn.

Order pronounced in the open court on 22.05.2026.
