(2.) LEARNED Counsel for the assessee invites our attention to circular No. 1979 dated 27.3.2000, issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes, and points out that as the instructions issued by the Board prohibits filing of an appeal where the quantum of tax is less than Rs. 2 Lacs, these appeals would not be maintainable.

Nos. 18/2005 and 22/2005 [Commissioner of Income Tax Vs. Ramkishore Nandkishore] to say that the appeals are not maintainable.
