Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, PUNE BENCH, ‘B’ PUNE
Before: SHRI R.S. SYAL & SHRI PARTHA SARATHI CHAUDHURY
आदेश / ORDER
PER R.S. SYAL, VP : This appeal by the Revenue is directed against the order passed by the CIT(A)-7, Pune on 23-09-2020 in relation to the assessment year 2012-13.
At the outset, the ld. AR submitted that the tax effect in this case is less than Rs.50.00 lakh. He also filed the computation of tax. The ld. DR accepted the position.
The CBDT has issued circular No.17/2019 dated 08-08-2019 revising upward the monetary limits for filing of appeals by the Department in Income-tax Cases before various appellate forums. The earlier circular No.03/2018 dated 11-07-2018 fixed monetary limit for filing of appeals by the Revenue before the Tribunal at Rs.20.00 lakh. Such limit has now been enhanced in the Circular dated 08-08-2019 to Rs.50.00 lakh. Since tax effect in the instant appeal is less than the revised monetary limit of Rs.50.00 lakh, we are not inclined to entertain this appeal.
At this juncture, it is pertinent to note that the CBDT vide F.No.279/Misc/M-13/2018-ITJ dated 20-08-2019 has clarified that the revised monetary limits so mentioned in Circular No.17/2019 are applicable to all pending appeals. In view of the foregoing discussion, we dismiss the appeal filed by the Revenue.
In the result, the appeal is dismissed.
Order pronounced in the Open Court on 15th June, 2022.
