At the outset, on 12.02.2025 it was informed by the Ld. AR that the assessee has availed the Vivad se Vishwas, 2024 scheme.

A copy of Form No. 1 was enclosed and it was requested that the leave may be granted to restore this appeal if the VsVs application fails for any reason. Since the assessee has opted for the Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme, hence the present appeal is infructuous and needs to be dismissed as withdrawn. The Ld. DR did not object to the withdrawal of the appeal. 3. As per S. No. 10 of the Guidance Note 1/2024 on provisions of the Direct Tax Vivad se Vishwas Scheme, 2024 dated 15th October, 2024, it is mentioned that as per section 91(2) of the Scheme, after filing of declaration, appeals before ITAT/CIT(A)/JCIT(A) are deemed to be withdrawn from the date of issue of certificate by the Designated Authority. Further as per section 91(3) of the Scheme, the taxpayer is required to withdraw appeals and furnish proof thereof along with intimation of payment u/s 92(2) of the Scheme. Since the assessee has requested for withdrawal of the appeal, it is permitted to withdraw the same and the appeal is dismissed as withdrawn. However, if the subsequent facts warrant that the appeal should be heard on merits, the assessee shall be at liberty to file a Miscellaneous Application for restoration of the appeal. Page | 3 I.T.A.
