JUDGMENT
The revenue has preferred this appeal against the order passed by the Tribunal granting relief to the assessee.
The net tax effect, which is the subject matter of this appeal, is less than Rs.10,00,000/-. In view of the instructions bearing No.3/2001 issued by the CBDT which has been interpreted by this Court to
3 be retrospective in operation in the case of COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX vs RANKA & RANKA 352 ITR PAGE 121, the appeal is not maintainable.
However, it is submitted that the revenue has challenged the judgment in the Apex Court and it is pending consideration. In the event the revenue succeeding in the appeal before the Apex Court, liberty is reserved to the revenue to seek for revival of this appeal. As on today, in view of the judgment, the appeal is not maintainable. Accordingly, appeal is dismissed.
