The Ld. D.R did not raise any objection.
We have gone through the order of the Ld. CIT(A) and find that the Ld. CIT(A) has dismissed the appeal of the assessee on the ground that the assessee opted VSVS scheme dated 12.02.2021 that he offered for VSVS scheme. The contention of the assessee is that he filed an application/ declaration to opt VSVS scheme was against the original penalty order not against the impugned order under appeal. Keeping in view, the above facts, the order passed by the Ld. CIT(A) is hereby set aside and case is restored in the file of Ld. CIT(A) for fresh adjudication on merit. The assessee is directed to place his case before the Ld. CIT(A).
In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed for statistical purposes.
