Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, DELHI BENCH ‘D’ NEW DELHI
Before: SHRI C.M. GARG & SHRI L.P. SAHU
ORDER Per Bench: It is apparent from record that the present appeal has been preferred by the Revenue against the action of the ld. CIT(A)-Meerut – order dated 24.01.2013 whereby he has deleted the addition of Rs.25,29,708/- made by AO u/s. 68 of the Act. Undisputedly, the present appeal has been preferred by the Revenue in violation of CBDT Circular No. 21/2015 dated 10.12.2015, wherein the pecuniary limit for preferring the appeal by the Revenue before the ITAT has been prescribed beyond Rs.10 lacs. The above circular on pecuniary limit has now statutory force within the provisions of section 268A of the IT Act, hence, the present appeal is not maintainable. The ld. Sr. DR, Ms. Ritu Sharma requested that while dismissing the appeal as not maintainable, it may be made clear that the present order will have no precedential value.
In view of the above discussion, the present appeal preferred by the Revenue in violation of CBDT Circular No. 21/2015 (supra) is not maintainable and hence, it is dismissed as such making it clear that since the present appeal has not been disposed of on merits of the appeal, but due to above reason, it will have no any judicial precedence.
In the result, the appeal of the Revenue is dismissed as non- maintainable. Order pronounced in the open court on 30.03.2016 Sd/- Sd/- (C.M. GARG) (L.P.
