The Ld. Authorized Representative (A.R) of the assessee, at the outset stated that assessee has opted for Direct Tax Vivad-se-Vishwas Scheme, 2024 and therefore, wants to withdraw the appeal. The Ld.

We allow the assessee to withdraw the appeal and dismiss the appeal as withdrawn. However, it is open to the assessee to approach the Tribunal by filing an appropriate application in the event of any prejudice caused in respect of the settlement of tax dispute under the Direct Tax Vivad-se-Vishwas Scheme, 2024.
In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee is dismissed as withdrawn. Order pronounced in the open Court on 03rd March, 2025.
