आदेश / O R D E R भहावीय स िंह, उऩाध्मक्ष के द्वाया / PER MAHAVIR SINGH, VP: These appeals of assessee are arising out of the orders of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)]-34, Mumbai, [in short CIT(A)],
At the outset, the learned Counsel for the assessee stated that the tax effects in these appeals are ₹37,103 & ₹1,36,628/- for AYs 2008-09 & 2009-10 respectively, which is below the tax effect as prescribed vide CBDT Circular No. 17/2019 vide F.No. 279/Misc.142/2007-ITJ(Pt.) dated 08.08.2019, wherein the monetary limit for filing of appeal before ITAT is enhanced to ₹50 lacs. We noted that vide this circular No. 17/2019 dated 08.08.2019 an amendment was made to CBDT Circular No. 3/2018 dated 11.07.2018 vide F.No. 279/Misc. 142/2007-ITJ (Pt) increasing the monetary limit for filing of appeal before Income Tax Appellate Tribunal i.e. ₹ 50 lacs in each of the case from the monetary limit of ₹20 lacs. We noted that earlier Circular No. 3 of 2018 was made applicable to pending appeals also and this clause of the circular remains unchanged even after the amendment. Admittedly, in this case tax effect is below prescribed limit of ₹ 50 lacs for filing of appeal before the Tribunal.
