The Ld. Counsel, on behalf of the Assessee, has filed an application dated 8.4.2025 for withdrawal of this 50-Chd-2024 Davinder Singh 2 appeal on the ground that the Assessee has filed his declaration under the 'Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme 2024’ on 3.12.2024 and sought permission of the Bench to withdraw the aforementioned appeal. As per the Assessee, necessary certificate in Form No.2 has been issued but the final Form No. 4 is awaited from the designated Authority.
Considering the prayer of the assessee, this appeal is dismissed as ‘withdrawn’ because in view of this settlement of dispute under 'Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme', it becomes infructuous. However, it is made clear that in case, on account of some technicalities, assessee fails to avail the full benefit of this Scheme, then both sides will be at liberty to get the appeal revived after filing of application under Section 254(2) of the Income Tax Act. Such application be filed within due date of limitation provided under this Scheme.
In the result, appeal of the assessee is dismissed as withdrawn.
Order pronounced on 30. 06.2025.
