These are the appeals filed by the assessee against the order passed by the NFAC, Delhi both dated 15/10/2024 for the assessment years 2014-15 and 2018-19. 2. In the present appeals, the assessee has contended that it intends to settle the dispute under Vivad Se Vishwas (VSV) Scheme 2024

under the Direct Tax Vivad se Vishwas Scheme (DTVSV), 2024, issued by the Competent Authority in support of his contention. Accordingly, the ld. AR filed the letter dated 01-04-2025 requesting for the withdrawal of appeals.
The Learned Departmental Representative (DR) confirmed the submission of the AR and raised no objection to the dismissal of the appeals in light of the settlement of dispute under DTVSV, 2024. 4. Considering the submission of the parties and in view of the fact that Form-3/4 has been issued by the revenue authority, we find that no purpose would be served by keeping this appeal pending before the Tribunal. Accordingly, these appeals are dismissed as the issue is being resolved under the Direct Tax Vivad se Vishwas Scheme, 2024. However, before parting it is clarified that in the event the Competent Authority under DTVSV, 2024, for any reason, deems the settlement to be non- operative or invalid, the Assessee shall be at liberty to approach the Tribunal by filing a suitable application for restoration of the appeal to its original number as per the provisions of law.
In the result, the appeals filed by the Assessee are hereby dismissed under DTVSV 2024. Order pronounced in court on 24th day of April, 2025 (SOUNDARARAJAN K) Accountant Member Bangalore Dated, 24th April, 2025
