AI SummaryDismissed

What did the Tribunal hold?

Given that the correct appeal is already listed before the Jodhpur Bench, the present appeal filed before the Delhi Bench is deemed a duplicate and is therefore dismissed. The assessee is directed to pursue the original appeal filed before the Jodhpur Bench for the relevant Assessment Year.

What were the facts?

The assessee inadvertently filed two appeals for Assessment Year 2020-21: one before the correct jurisdiction in Jodhpur (ITA No.414/Jodh/2025) and a duplicate appeal before the Delhi Benches due to a technical error. The assessee requested that the Delhi appeal be transferred to the Jodhpur Bench.

What were the issues?

Whether a duplicate appeal inadvertently filed before the Delhi Bench should be transferred or dismissed when an identical appeal is already pending before the correct jurisdictional tribunal (Jodhpur Bench).

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 250,Section 143(3),Section 144B
