PER: VIKRAM SINGH YADAV, A.M.:
This appeal by the Revenue is directed against the order dated 22.01.2018 of CIT (A), Ajmer for the assessment year 2009-10. The Revenue has raised the following grounds of appeal:- “ 1) Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the CIT (A) was right in deleting the addition of Rs. 48,00,000/- made under section 68 of the I.T. Act on account of accommodation entries of Rs. 48,00,000/- obtained in the form of share application money? 2) The appellant craves its rights to add, amend or alter any of the grounds on or before the hearing.” 2. At the time of hearing, none appeared on behalf of the assessee but the tax effect involved in the appeal is not exceeding Rs. 20 lacs as per the CBDT
2 ITA No. 463/JP/2018 ITO Vs. M/s Classic Aluminum Works Pvt .Ltd. Circular No. 3 of 2018 dated 11th July, 2018. In the present case, tax effect in
Revenue’s appeal is below the prescribed limit of Rs. 20 lacs.
2.1. The ld. D/R has fairly submitted that the tax effect involved in the
Revenue’s appeal is less than 20 lacs which is prescribed threshold limit in terms of the CBDT Circular No. 3/2018 dated 11th July, 2018 issued in
supersession of its earlier Circular No. 21 of 2015 dated 10.12.2015.
We have heard the rival contentions and perused the materials available
on record. It is observed that the demand/ tax effect in the Revenue’s appeal
in question is below Rs. 20.00 lacs. Under the powers vested by section.
268A(1) of the I T Act, CBDT has recently issued Circular No. 3/2018 11th dated July, 2018 (F No. 279/Misc. 142/2007-ITJ(Pt)
instructing the authorities below that departmental appeal should
not be filed before ITAT where the demand/tax effect does not
exceed Rs. 20 lacs. The circular is specifically mentioned to be applicable for
all pending appeals.
Subject to some exceptions, it is further directed by CBDT that all the
departmental appeals pending before ITAT where the demand/tax effect is not
exceeding than 20 lacs should be either withdrawn or not pressed by the
departmental representatives.
The present appeal is not covered by any exceptions mentioned in the
said CBDT circular. Since the tax demand in dispute in this departmental
appeal is below the limit set out by CBDT for the appeal, the appeal of the
assessee is not maintainable in view of CBDT Circular No. 3 of 2018 dated
3 ITA No. 463/JP/2018 ITO Vs. M/s Classic Aluminum Works Pvt .Ltd. 11.07.2018. Accordingly the appeal of the Department is dismissed as not pressed/withdrawn.
In the result, the appeal of the Revenue is dismissed.
Order pronounced in the open court on 19/07/2018.
