| Bot Summary: | Cir 5(4) Sapphire Land Development P Ltd., Mumbai Room NO.5, 3rd Floor, Capri, VS. Anant Kanaker Marg, Bandra, Mumbai 400 051 AAACS7785H Appellant Respondent Appellant by: Shri Chaitanya Anjaria Respondent by: None Date of Hearing: 20.08.2019 Date of Pronouncement: 20.08.2019 ORDER The captioned appeal filed by the Revenue pertaining to A.Y. 2012-13 is directed against the order passed by the CIT(A)-53, Mumbai dated 26.05.2017 which in turn arises out of an order passed by the Assessing Officer under Section 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 dated 28.03.2015. The CBDT, vide Circular No. 17/2019 dated 8th August, 2019, has amended para 3 of Circular No. 3/2018 dated 11.07.2018 modifying the monetary limits for filing of appeals by the Department before the Tribunal. The tax effect in dispute in the captioned appeal is stated to be below the enhanced monetary limit of 50 lakhs specified in the CBDT Circular dated 08.08.2019 read with circular 11.07.2018. In this background, the learned D.R. appearing for the Revenue was required to state his position; he has not referred to any material which would show that the captioned appeal is protected by any of the exceptions provided in para 10 of the CBDT circular dated 11.07.2018 and its amendment dated 20th August, 2018. Without going into the merit of the issues raised, the captioned appeal is deemed to be withdrawn/not pressed as it s filing is not in consonance with the CBDT circular dated 08.08.2019 read with circular 11.07.2018. It is also noted that the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of DCIT Ors vs. MSEB Holding Company Ltd. SLP No.26373/2019 dated 16.08.2019 has taken cognizance of the enhanced limit while dismissing the SLP arising from the judgement passed by the Hon'ble Bombay High Court in WP No. 3642/2018 dated 25.01.2019. In conclusion, by applying the circular dated 08.08.2019 read with circular dated 11.07.2018, the captioned appeal of the Revenue is dismissed as withdrawn/ not pressed. |
