We heard the rival submissions and perused the material on record. Since the assessee has opted for ‘Vivaad se Vishwas Scheme 2020’ and received Form-3 from the income tax department. We are of the view that, no purpose will be served in keeping the appeal pending. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal of the assessee as withdrawn.
