Income Tax Appellate Tribunal

AY: 2017-2018
Ref: ITA.No.32/Kol/2025
Respected Sir,
1) This appeal arises from the order passed under Section 154 of the Income Tax Act,
1961. 2) The assessee, due to an incorrect understanding of the provisions of the Act.
inadvertently filed an appeal against the order passed under Section 154 of the Income
Tax Act, 1961, instead of challenging the original assessment order passed under Section 143(3) of the Act.
3) Since 2019, the assessee has, under a bona fide belief, continued to pursue the appeal against the Section 154 order.
4) It was only when the matter was recently assigned to a new counsel for further proceedings that the error in the course of appeal was noticed.
5) The assessee has now been advised to file an appeal against the order passed under Section 143(3) of the Act before the Learned CIT (Appeals), along with an appropriate petition for condonation of delay.
6) In light of the above, it is respectfully submitted that the present appeal may be permitted to be withdrawn or treated appropriately in the interest of justice, without prejudice to the assessee's rights.
