At the outset, the ld.counsel for the assessee stated that he has filed petition dated 29.03.2022 for withdrawal of this appeal without conceding on merits of appeal, which reads as under:- The above appeal is posted for hearing on 29.03.2022. The issue on appeal is whether lease rent in respect of a lease agreement for a period in excess of 12 years should be assessed as income from house property particularly in view of provisions of section 27(iiib) defining a deemed owner. However, to avoid protracted litigation on the issue and the smallness of tax, it is prayed that the appellant may be permitted to withdraw the appeal without prejudice the Appellant’s claim on merits of the issue. 3. When this was pointed out to ld. Senior DR, he has not raised any objection for withdrawal of appeal. Hence, we dismiss the appeal as withdrawn. 4. In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee is dismissed as withdrawn. Order pronounced in the open court on 29 th March, 2022 at Chennai.
