आदेश / ORDER
PER SUSHMA CHOWLA, JM:
The appeal filed by Revenue is against order of CIT(A)-1, Aurangabad, dated 17.11.2015 relating to assessment year 2012-13 against order passed under section 143(3) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (in short ‘the Act’).
ITA No.159/PUN/2016 2 M/s. Abhay Cotex Pvt. Ltd.
Despite service of notice, none appeared on behalf of assessee nor any application for adjournment was moved. However, since the tax effect involved in the present appeal is low, we proceed to decide the present appeal after hearing the learned Departmental Representative for the Revenue.
The CBDT vide Circular No.3/2018, dated 11.07.2018 has revised the monetary limits for filing of appeals by the Department before the Tribunal with retrospective effect. The tax effect in dispute in the captioned appeal is stated to be below the monetary limit of ₹ 20.00 lakhs specified in the CBDT Circular dated 11.07.2018 (supra).
In this background, the learned Departmental Representative for the Revenue was required to state his position; he has not referred to any material which would show that the captioned appeal is protected by any of the exceptions provided in para 10 of the Circular (supra).
Without going into the merit of the issues raised in the captioned appeal, this appeal is deemed to be withdrawn/not pressed as its filing is in contravention of the CBDT Circular dated 11.07.2018 (supra). Before parting, we clarify here that the Revenue shall be at liberty to approach the Tribunal for re-institution of appeal, if the requisite material is brought to show that the appeal is protected by the exceptions prescribed in para 10 of the Circular (supra).
ITA No.159/PUN/2016 3 M/s. Abhay Cotex Pvt. Ltd.
In conclusion, by applying the CBDT Circular dated 11.07.2018 (supra), the captioned appeal of the Revenue is dismissed as withdrawn/not pressed.
In the result, the appeal of Revenue is dismissed.
Order pronounced in open Court on this 28th day of August, 2018.
