JUDGMENT
Shri Sharath, learned advocate appearing for the respondent has filed a memo of even date and it reads as follows: “It is submitted that the Respondent in the above Appeals were assessed on protective basis. The department made very same additions on substantive basis in the hands of M/s. Venkatesha Education Society, where the department was in Appeal before this Hon’ble Court in ITA Nos. 248/2013, 254/2013, 255/2013, 257/2013, 258/2013. The Assessee M/s. Venkatesha Education Society paid the disputed tax under vivad se vishwas scheme.
This Hon’ble Court dismissed the department appeals of the Assessee viz., M/s. Venkatesh Education Society by order dated 10.01.2023. Thus, the Respondent Assessee being assessed on protective basis, in view of FAQ No.35 to Circular No.9/2020 the department has to pass the rectification order deleting the protective additions.
In this regard the Respondent prays before this Hon’ble Court to dismiss the Appeals of the department. ”
Shri Sharath submitted that other assessee, M/s. Venkatesha Education Society, has paid tax under vivad se vishwas scheme. Therefore, this appeal does not survive for consideration. He further submitted that this

In view of the above, this appeal stands disposed of with a direction to the AO to pass rectification order.
