PER BENCH:

Both these appeals filed by the assessee for AYs 2009-10 and 2012-13 are directed against CIT(A) – VI Hyderabad’s separate orders, both dated, 26/08/2015 involving proceedings u/s 143(3) of the Income Tax Act,1961 ; in short “the Act”.

2. At the outset, the ld. counsel for the assessee submitted that the assessee has opted to avail the benefit under the ‘Direct Tax Vivad Se Viswas Scheme-2020’ in prescribed Form No.1 & 2 and received Form(s)-3 in tune thereto, which is placed on record and therefore, requested the Bench to permit to withdraw its appeals.

3. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, we are inclined to dismiss the appeals of the assessee as withdrawn since the assessee has preferred to avail the Vivad-se-Vishwas Scheme by filing Form No.1 & 2 and received Form(s)-3 in tune thereto, with a rider that it shall be very much open for the assessee to file for revival of these cases, if the settlement benefit under the scheme is denied to it for technical reasons.

5. In the result, assessee’s appeals are dismissed in above terms.

Pronounced in the open court on 18th May, 2021.
