The present appeal filed by the assessee is directed against the order passed by the Commissioner of Income-Tax (Appeals), National Faceless Appeal Center (NFAC), Delhi, dated 14/10/2024, which in turn arises from the order passed by the A.O under Section 271D of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (in short ‘the Act’) dated 29/03/2023 for the assessment year 2020-21.
The Learned Authorized Representative (“AR”, for short) for the assessee, at the threshold of hearing, submitted, that as the assessee had opted for the “Direct Tax Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme, 2024" (“DTVSV”, for short) therefore, as per instructions he seeks to withdraw the captioned appeal.
