O R D E R
Per N.V. Vasudevan, Vice President
This appeal is by the revenue against the order dated 30.9.2019 of the CIT(Appeals)-I, Bengaluru for the assessment year 2016-17.
Admittedly, the tax effect in this appeal by the revenue is less than Rs.50 lakhs. In view of the CBDT in Circular No.17/2019, dated 08.08.2019, the revenue cannot file appeals before the Tribunal where the tax effect is less than Rs.50 lakhs. Since the tax effect in the present appeal is less than Rs.50 lakhs, this appeal of the revenue is liable to be dismissed as not maintainable. Accordingly, the appeal of the revenue is dismissed. The CO by the assessee was not pressed and the same is dismissed.
In the result, the revenue’s appeal and the CO by the assessee are dismissed.
Pronounced in the open court on this 18th day of February, 2020.
