What did the High Court hold?

The High Court has not decided any substantive issues on the merits of the appeals. The order primarily deals with procedural matters. The Court has condoned the delay of 38 days in filing the appeals, allowing the applications for condonation. Exemptions have also been granted, subject to just exceptions. Crucially, the Court has been informed that an identical issue is pending before it in ITA No. 681/2025, with a hearing date of December 18, 2025. At the joint request of the parties, the present appeals (ITA 725/2025, ITA 726/2025, and ITA 727/2025) have been re-notified to be heard along with ITA No. 681/2025 on December 18, 2025. No finding has been reached on any of the substantive grounds of appeal, and no operative directions have been issued beyond scheduling the hearing.

What were the facts?

These three appeals, ITA 725/2025, ITA 726/2025, and ITA 727/2025, have been filed by the Pr. Commissioner of Income Tax, Central-1, Delhi (the Revenue) against the respondent, Neera Wig. The appeals were filed with a delay of 38 days, which has been condoned by the High Court. The appeals challenge an order or action that is not specified in the provided text. The procedural history indicates that the appeals were listed for hearing, and the court was informed that an identical issue is pending before the same court in ITA No. 681/2025, scheduled for hearing on December 18, 2025. Consequently, these appeals have been re-notified to be heard along with ITA No. 681/2025 on the same date.

What were the issues?

The judgment does not explicitly state the specific issues that the Tribunal had to decide, nor does it record the arguments made by the assessee or the revenue. The primary matter addressed in the provided text is the condonation of delay in filing the appeals and the scheduling of the hearing. It is mentioned that an identical issue is pending consideration before the High Court in another appeal (ITA No. 681/2025). Therefore, the core question that emerges is whether the appeals will proceed to a substantive hearing on their merits, given the pendency of an identical issue in another case. The judgment does not detail any specific legal provisions or precedents relied upon by either party.
