2016 (1) TMI 989 - AT - Income TaxMonetary limit - appeal filing before the ITAT - Held that:- It is noticed that the CBDT has issued Circular No.21 of 2015 dated 10.12.2015, vide which it has revised the monetary limit to ₹ 10,00,000/- for not filing the appeal before the Tribunal. From Clause 10 of the above circular it is clear that these instructions are applicable to the pending appeals also and there is clear cut instruction to the department to withdraw or not to press the appeals filed before the ITAT wherein tax effect is less than ₹ 10,00,000/-. These instructions are operative retrospectively to the pending appeals. Keeping in view the CBDT Circular No.21 of 2015 dated 10.12.2015 and also the provisions of Section 268A of Income Tax Act, 1961, we are of the view that the Revenue should not have filed the instant appeal before the Tribunal.
