Taxpayers whose appeals were pending as of July 22, 2024, are generally eligible. This includes cases where appeals were disposed of on merits or dismissed as withdrawn before filing a declaration, as long as the appeal was pending on the specified date. Appeals against tax intimations under Section 143(1) are also eligible if pending.
Cases involving assessments under Sections 153A or 153C (related to search actions), appeals connected to review petitions, or cases pending before the Income Tax Settlement Commission (ITSC) are explicitly excluded.
