CIT(A) allowed assessee to withdraw appeal against section 263 revision order, stating Tribunal quashed section 263 order and CIT(A) erred in not deciding appeal merits. Revenue contended CIT(A) lacks power to allow withdrawal without deciding merits. CIT(A) discussed power u/s 251 to confirm, reduce, enhance or annul assessment while deciding appeal u/s 246A within section 251(1)(a) purview. CIT(A) relied on Bombay High Court decision holding withdrawal power not u/s 251(1)(a) and CIT(A) must decide merits. CIT(A) stated despite withdrawal application, appeal cannot be dismissed without merits examination. Since section 263 revisionary order quashed, consequential section 143(3) order would not survive legally, rightly held by CIT(A). No justification for Revenue's objection that appeal not dismissed based on withdrawal application, finding no merits in Revenue's grounds of appeal.
