Sri Sandeepani A Neglur, the learned counsel for the respondent, has filed a memo for disposal of the appeal which reads as under: "The under signed Advocate appearing on behalf of the Respondent, on the instructions received by the Respondent, most humbly submits that the Respondent has availed the benefit provided in the 'the Direct Tax Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme, 2024' and has obtained a Discharge Certificate in Form No.4 by the Designated Authority under the Scheme indicating full and final payment (A copy of the said discharge Certificate in form No.4 is annexed herewith). In view of the above, the undersigned Advocate most humbly submits that the present appeal has become infructuous.

HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:49490-DB ITA No. 999 of 2017
and dispose the Appeal as having become infructuous, in the interests of justice."
If Sri Sandeepani A Neglur submits that the appeal could be disposed of in terms of the memo because the tax liability is discharged in terms of the acknowledgement in Form-4 as enclosed, Sri E I Sanmathi, the learned counsel for the appellants, submits that the authorities must be reserved liberty to seek revival of this appeal if there is cause for the same.
Subject to all just exceptions, liberty is reserved as sought for, and the memo is accepted.
The appeal stands disposed of accordingly.
