The Revenue is aggrieved by the impugned orders dated 08/04/2013 (Assessment Years 2006-07 and 2007-08) and 09/04/2013 (Assessment Year 2008-09 & 2009-10) of the Ld. First Appellate Authority, Thane, on the grounds as stated in the respective appeal.
During hearing of these appeals, at the outset, Shri Jigar Mehta, ld. counsel for the assessee, contended that in the respective appeal, the total tax effect is below prescribed monetary limit of Rs.10 lakh for filing the appeal before this Tribunal. The ld. CIT-DR, Shri N. K. Singh, did not controvert the claim of the assessee.
2.1. We have considered the rival submissions and perused the material available on record. In view of the above, since the tax effect in the respective appeal is below prescribed limit of Rs.10 lakh for filing the appeal before the Tribunal, as contained in CBDT instruction No.21 of 2015, dated 10/12/2015 (F No.279/Misc./142/2007-IT(PT), applicable with retrospective effect, wherein, the Department was advised/directed by the Board not to file appeal in the cases where the tax effect does not exceed, the following monetary limit, we find merit in the claim of the assessee.:-
