ITA No. 35/Ahd/14 [ITO vs. Anil K. Tekani] - 2 - A.Y. 2010-11
The Revenue’s only substantive ground pleaded in the instant appeal challenges the CIT(A)’s order deleting the addition u/s.68 to the extent of Rs.11.55 lacs. There is no dispute that the net tax effect in the instant appeal is less than Rs.10 lacs. We find that the Central Board of Direct Taxes; hereafter the ‘Board’ has issued the circular no. 21/2015 dated 10.12.2015 clearly envisaging therein that department’s pending appeals before the tribunal/high courts are to be withdrawn/not pressed as per the above stated circular. The same has been declared to be having retrospective effect in other words. We take into consideration the above stated Board’s circular and dismiss the instant appeal accordingly.
This Revenue’s appeal is dismissed as having low tax effect.
