2 ITA No.2778/M/2023 M/s. Shamdarshan Properties Private Limited
The Assessee has sought withdrawal of the instant appeal on the ground that the Assessee has filed two appeals simultaneously one by e- filing and present one in physical form. To avoid multiplicity of litigations, the assessee had filed application for withdrawal of the online appeal being ITA 2798/M/2023 which is fixed now on 24.09.2024 before "K" Bench. However, now the Assessee wants to continue with the appeal filed online but not the present one and therefore liberty may be given for the same. The Ld. D.R. did not refute the claim of the Assessee.
Considering this appeal being duplicate of the appeal already filed online, which is fixed on 24.09.2024 before "K" Bench, we are inclined to allow withdrawal of this appeal, however with liberty to the Assessee to continue with the appeal filed online, as prayed for .
In the result, the appeal filed by the Assessee stands dismissed as withdrawn with the liberty as prayed for.
Order pronounced in the open court on 30.08.2024.
