Facts
The assessee, Sukhwinder Kaur, filed an appeal before the Delhi ITAT (ITA No. 2858/DEL/2023) for AY 2015-16 due to a technical glitch on the ITAT website. The correct appeal, ITA No. 612/Chandi/2023, was subsequently filed before the Chandigarh Benches, which holds the proper territorial jurisdiction over the matter. The assessee sought to withdraw the appeal mistakenly filed in Delhi.
Held
The tribunal, after considering the assessee's submission that the Delhi appeal was filed due to a technical glitch and the correct appeal was before the Chandigarh Benches, permitted the withdrawal. The Ld. DR had no objection to the withdrawal request, and consequently, the appeal before the Delhi ITAT was dismissed as withdrawn.
Key Issues
Permissibility of withdrawing an appeal filed before the Delhi ITAT due to a technical glitch, when the correct appeal was filed before the jurisdictional Chandigarh ITAT.
