The Direct Tax Vivad Se Vishwas Act, 2020 aims to settle tax disputes. The term "appeal" under the Act includes writ petitions challenging tax orders, as per Supreme Court interpretations. The petitioner's writ petition challenging the tax order qualifies as an "appeal" under the Act, making them eligible to settle the dispute. The Act covers "tax arrears," including interest on disputed tax. The Court directed the authorities to process the petitioner's application under the Act expeditiously, emphasizing the legislative intent to provide amnesty for settling tax arrears disputes.
