Section 144 of the Act.
Held
Considering the subsequent relief granted by the NFAC, the Tribunal determined that the present appeal had become infructuous. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed on this ground.
Key Issues
Whether an appeal before the ITAT becomes infructuous if the assessee has already received relief from the National Faceless Appeal Centre (NFAC) through a subsequent order.
