What did the High Court hold?
The High Court granted the leave sought by the appellant's counsel. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed as withdrawn. The court also granted the appellant the liberty to seek revival of the appeal, should they be advised to do so in the future. No costs were awarded. The specific findings or reasoning of the ITAT or the High Court on any substantive legal or factual issues are not on record, as the appeal was disposed of on a procedural basis.
What were the facts?
The appellant, Sri. M. R. Seetharam, filed an Income Tax Appeal (ITA No. 148/2018) before the High Court of Karnataka at Bengaluru. This appeal arose from an order dated 27.10.2017 passed in ITA No. 1220/BANG/2015 and Cross Objection No. 224/BANG/2015 by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT), Bengaluru Bench. The assessment year in question is 2006-2007. The appeal was filed under Section 260-A of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The respondent is the Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle-6(3)(1), Bengaluru. The appellant sought to formulate and answer substantial questions of law in their favour.
What were the issues?
The primary issue before the High Court was to consider the appeal filed by the assessee, Sri. M. R. Seetharam, against the order of the ITAT for the assessment year 2006-2007. The assessee, through their Senior Counsel, filed a memo seeking leave to withdraw the appeal with liberty to seek revival if advised.
