Facts
The assessee filed an appeal against an order passed by the CIT(Exemption) under Section 12(1)(ac) of the Income Tax Act. The assessee requested to withdraw this appeal, stating that a separate appeal for the same matter (ITA No. 2616/PUN/2024) had already been decided in their favor by the Pune ITAT, thus making the current appeal a duplication.
Held
The Tribunal permitted the assessee to withdraw the appeal, as the Departmental Representative confirmed that the Revenue had no objection. Consequently, the appeal and its grounds were dismissed as withdrawn.
Key Issues
Whether the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal should allow the withdrawal of an appeal if a similar matter has already been decided in the assessee's favor and the Revenue has no objection.
