What next should i do. Pls advise

There is a delay in responses from the Department on account of the pandemic, and Faceless Assessment/Appeals. You could wait for a reasonable time and then approach your designated authority under VSVA. 

Further, As per section 4(2) of VSVA, Upon the filing the declaration, any appeal pending before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, in respect of the disputed income or disputed interest or disputed penalty or disputed fee and tax arrear shall be deemed to have been withdrawn from the date on which certificate under sub-section (1) of section 5 is issued by the designated authority. Therefore, it would be important to inform the Tribunal that the assessee is availing the VSV Scheme. It is desirable to withdraw the appeal after getting certificate from the designated authority
