आदेश/Order PER BENCH :
All the above Appeals have been filed by the Revenue and Cross objections filed by different assesse’s. 2. According to Circular No. 03/2018 dated 11/07/2018, the CBDT in supersession of earlier instructions has directed that department’s appeals before ITAT shall not be filed in cases where the tax effect does not exceed the monetary limit of Rs. 20 lacs. The tax will not include any interest thereon. It is further clarified that if in the case of an assessee, disputed issues arise in more than one assessment year, appeal can be filed in respect of such assessment year or years in which the tax effect in respect of disputed issues exceeds the monetary limit so specified.
Admittedly, in the departmental appeals, the tax effect is less than Rs. 20 lacs, therefore, departmental appeal is not maintainable. The Ld. DR could not bring to our notice any exceptions mentioned in the said Circular.
In view of the above, all the appeals of the Revenue are dismissed. 5. Cross Objections of the assessee’s are not pressed before us, therefore needs no adjudication and hence treated as dismissed. Order pronounced in the open Court.
