Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, ‘B’ BENCH, CHENNAI
Before: SHRI V. DURGA RAO & SHRI G. MANJUNATHA
PER G. MANJUNATHA, AM: This appeal filed by assessee is directed against order of learned Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-5, Chennai, dated 25.09.2019 and pertains to assessment year 2011-12.
None appeared for the assessee. We have heard learned DR and also perused the materials available on record. At the time of hearing, the assessee has filed a letter dated 22.06.2022 along with Form No.5 issued by the Department under ‘Vivad se Vishwas Scheme, 2020’ and submitted that the assessee has availed the VSVS scheme to settle its pending disputes. The assessee further submitted that the Department
has accepted application filed by the assessee and issued Form 5 quantifying amount of taxes payable under VSVS scheme. Therefore, the assessee submitted that the appeal filed by the assessee may be dismissed as withdrawn. The ld. DR, on the other hand, has no objection for dismissing the appeal as the Designated Authority has issued Form 5.
Therefore, considering fact that the assessee has filed application for withdrawal of appeal and has also filed Form 5 issued by the Department, we dismiss appeal filed by the assessee as withdrawn. However, a liberty is given to the assessee to restore the appeal, in case application filed by the assessee before the Designated Authority, is rejected for any reason.
