The appeal was filed by the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax-1, Ludhiana (the revenue) against Sh. Pardeep Kumar Aggarwal (the assessee). The assessment year(s) are not specified in the provided text. The appeal challenges an order or action that is not detailed. The procedural history indicates that the revenue sought to withdraw the appeal due to the tax effect being below the monetary limit prescribed by CBDT Circulars. The High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh heard the matter.
What were the issues?
1. Whether the revenue is permitted to withdraw the appeal due to the tax effect being below the prescribed monetary limit, and if so, whether liberty should be granted to revive the appeal. The revenue, through its learned counsel, stated that the tax effect involved in the appeal is less than the monetary limit prescribed by CBDT Circular No.3 of 2018, as amended by Circular No.17 of 2019 and Letter No.F.No.279/Misc/M-93/2018-ITJ dated 20.08.2019.
