Read from the judgment's own cause title. This page is filed under one of them.
PER SANJAY AWASTHI, ACCOUNTANT MEMBER: 1. These are a batch of two appeals pertaining to the same assessee which are being adjudicated through a single order.
-109/GTY/2024 Greenlam Industries Limited mentioned that for these two years, the assessee has filed for DTVSVS. However, it is stated that the matter could be kept pending till the final settlement orders could be received under VSVS-Scheme.
We have considered the averments of the Ld. AR and also of the Ld. Departmental Representative. It is understood that for the assessee to avail benefit under DTVSVS Scheme, 2024, withdrawal of appeal is a primary contention. Accordingly, we are dismissing this appeal, but also providing an opportunity to the assessee for filing an appropriate miscellaneous application in case he does not succeed, for whatever reason, in getting his matter settled under the DTVSVS Scheme.
Accordingly, all the two appeals of the assessee are treated as dismissed.
