If you need to withdraw an income tax appeal, you cannot do so directly. Instead, you must file an application with the Appellate Authority at the first hearing, requesting permission to withdraw. This is particularly important if you are opting for the DTVSV scheme, as any ongoing appeals must be withdrawn before a settlement certificate is issued. The withdrawal is officially recognised once the designated authority issues a certificate, typically after filing Form 2.
