M/S EAST INDIA BUSINESS CENTRE PRIVATE LIMITED,KOLKATA vs. DEPUTY COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX - CIRCLE 7(1), KOLKATA

None appeared on behalf of the assessee. At the outset, it is noticed from the letter of the assessee dated 07.09.2021 that the assessee has opted for Direct Tax Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme, 2020 (hereinafter, the ‘scheme’) and has filed Form-1, Form-2 before the Competent Authority and pursuant to which the assessee has received Form No.3 from the Competent Authority. Therefore, taking into consideration the fact that since the assessee has opted for the Scheme and is in receipt of Form no. 3, there is no point in keeping the impugned appeal pending.

In the light of the aforesaid discussion, we treat this submission of the assessee informing the Tribunal the fact that assessee has opted for the said scheme and is in receipt of Form no.3, therefore, we allow the assessee to withdraw the captioned

Needless to say that the aforesaid action allowing the assessee to withdraw the appeal, will not come in the way of the competent authority of Revenue to accept the assessee’s said option/scheme for availing “Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme, 2020” provided the assessee remits the tax due as per Form no. 3 of the Scheme.

In the result, the appeal of assessee is dismissed as withdrawn.
