This document provides a detailed summary of ITA No. 4983/DEL/2019, where appellant Mohan Jindal withdrew his appeal against the order of the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax, Hisar. The appeal pertained to the assessment year 2014-15 and was withdrawn as part of the taxpayer’s participation in the ‘Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme, 2020’, an initiative aimed at resolving pending disputes related to direct taxes.
Mohan Jindal initially filed an appeal against the order dated March 14, 2019, by the Pr. CIT, Hisar, challenging issues related to tax arrears for the assessment year 2014-15. However, in a turn towards resolution, the appellant opted to settle the dispute through the Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme.
On February 17, 2021, during a session held via video conferencing, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal acknowledged the withdrawal request from Mohan Jindal. The learned Senior DR representing the revenue also had no objections to this withdrawal. Consequently, the tribunal dismissed the appeal as withdrawn, effectively closing the case under the terms stipulated by the Vivad Se Vishwas Act.
The withdrawal of the appeal under the Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme highlights the scheme’s role in providing a streamlined framework for the resolution of pending tax disputes. This case serves as a pertinent example of how tax disputes can be settled amicably, avoiding prolonged litigation and fostering a cooperative relationship between taxpayers and the revenue authority.
