He submitted that Form No.3 shall be issued to the assessee in due course andaccordingly he submitted that the appeals of the assessee maybe dismissed as withdrawn, as the assessee in any case is required to withdraw the appeals. The learned DR further submitted that in these types of cases, the Tribunal is givingliberty to seek recall of the order if the appeal is dismissed by the Bench.
