Very very very useful complete RCM under GST*

*Reverse charge mechanism under GST and implications of exemption upto Rs. 5000 per day*

Let’s look at the critical provisions of the GST law which have enabled reverse charge mechanism :-

Compulsory Reverse Charge even if the supplier is registered –

Sec 9(3) The Government may, on the recommendations of the Council, by notification, specify categories of supply of goods or services or both, the tax on which shall be paid on reverse charge basis by the recipient of such goods or services or both and all the provisions of this Act shall apply to such recipient as if he is the person liable for paying the tax in relation to the supply of such goods or services or both.

The above section primarily covers services availed from Goods Transport Agency, Lawyer, government, corporate sponsorships, director etc.

Reverse Charge if the supplier is unregistered –

Sec 9(4) The central tax in respect of the supply of taxable goods or services or both by a supplier, who is not registered, to a registered person shall be paid by such person on reverse charge basis as the recipient and all the provisions of this Act shall apply to such recipient as if he is the person liable for paying the tax in relation to the supply of such goods or services or both.

Central Government had come up with an exemption to the small miscellaneous transactions from unregistered persons.

Notification No. 8/2017- Central Tax (Rate) dt 28.06.2017 issued by Central Government has exempted intra-State supplies of goods or services or both received by a registered person from any supplier, who is not registered, from the whole of the central tax leviable thereon under sub-section (4) of section 9 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (12 of 2017)

The said exemption shall not be applicable where the aggregate value of such supplies of goods or service or both received by a registered person from any or all the suppliers, who is or are not registered, exceeds five thousand rupees in a day.

To sum up, the supply should be intra state supply (within the state) and can be for goods as well as services or both. Moreover the supply should be received by the registered person from an unregistered dealer only and upto a daily limit of Rs. 5000/-

Example:-

Mr. X  purchased following items from unregistered dealer, all are dated 01.07.2017 as under:

1st bill – From Ram: Stationery = 2000/-
2nd bill – From Shyam: Lunch = 1000/-
3rd bill – From Madhu : Books = 3000/-

In this case, The bills of Mr. X will not get covered under this notification as aggregate value of all supplies exceeds 5000/- on a single date (01.07.2017)

Exemption would have been available if,:

1) Bill dates are different (So that it will come under 5000/- day limit, say bill date of Ram is 02.07.2017)
2) Any of the bills are 1000/- less than the mentioned value(Say Bill of Madhu is Rs 2000/-
3) If the one of the bills in the same of other person (say, one of the bill is in the name of Mr. Y)

FAQ’s

Whether these 5000 limit be availed for those cases where compulsory tax is payable in RCM basis as per section 9(3) of CGST act?

Where Compulsory tax is to be paid under the Reverse Charge Mechanism under 9(3) of CGST Act, and as per Notification N0o. 13/2017- Central Tax (Rate) dt 28.06.2017 the benefit of this limit cannot be availed. Reason being these notification cover only cases of 9(4) and not 9(3).

Mr. X purchased following items from unregistered dealer, all are dated 01.07.2017 as under:

1st bill – From Ram: Stationery = 2000/-
2nd bill – From Shyam: Lunch = 1000/-
3rd bill – From Madhu: Goods Transport Agency = 3000/-

In this case, The bills from Mr Ram and Mr Shyam will get covered under this notification as aggregate value of all supplies does not exceed 5000/- on a single date (01.07.2017). For the Third bill from Madhu Reverse charge is payable u/s 9(3) without any exemption threshold.

Whether this daily limit benefits would be available if the goods/services received from persons covered under 9(4) are blocked credits?

The benefit of daily limit would be available. Output Tax under reverse charge would be payable if it crosses the daily limit even though they are covered under blocked credits.

What if the limit crosses 5000 in a day, is GST payable over and above the value or from rupee 1?

If the value of taxable supplies exceeds Rs5000 per day for all suppliers, then GST would be payable on the Total value of the supplies received from unregistered persons.

Is this limit applicable to all supplies?

The limit is applicable to only taxable supply of goods or services or both. Exempt supplies are out of the preview of this notification.

Mr. X purchased following items from unregistered dealer, all are dated 01.07.2017 as under:

1st bill – From Ram: Stationery = 2000/-
2nd bill – From Shyam: Hotel Room = 1000/-
3rd bill – From Madhu: Books = 3000/-

In this case, the bills of Mr. X will not get covered under this notification as aggregate value of all supplies does not exceed 5000/- on a single date (01.07.2017) as the supplies from Shyam for Hotel room booking are exempt under Entry 14 of the exemption notification (12/2017).

What if the supplies are procured from Interstate supply from unregistered?

Benefit of this notification is available only for Intra State Purchase. If any transactions are done on an interstate basis the same are covered under the forward charge and in any case the reverse charge provisions are not applicable.

Goods and services both inclusive 5000 or separate?

Yes, the benefit is inclusive for all goods or services or both.

What rate GST should be payable then?

GST should be payable as per the schedules rate of the product/service.

What if procured from Composition persons?

Since Composition persons are registered person, reverse charge is not applicable on such supplies.

Can credit be availed for these taxes paid and on what basis, any invoice issue requirement?

Credits can be availed on payment of GST in cash. A consolidated monthly tax invoice can be raised if supplies are received from a single vendor. The Invoice shall be raised on the date of receipt of goods or services or both. Also a payment voucher needs to be issued on the date of making any advance payment as the time of supply is invoice of payment whichever is earlier.

Travel agents providing online ticketing and other services will be liable to deduct 1 per cent tax at source under the GST regime as they have been classified as e-commerce operators, the CBEC said today.
.

.
Under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime, an e- commerce operator is required to collect 1 per cent of the net value of taxable supplies made through it. The amount so collected is called tax collected at source or TCS but this provision has been kept in abeyance for the time being.
.

.
Online travel agents have been classified as e-commerce operators (ECO) and so they have to deduct TCS.
.



.
The Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC), in a fresh set of frequently asked questions (FAQs), said the TCS requirement would not apply to someone selling own products through a website. Only applicable GST for the goods would be levied in that case.
.

.
Electronic commerce or e-commerce means supply of goods or services, including digital products, over electronic network and an e-commerce operator is a person who owns operates or manages the electronic platform for e-commerce, it said.
.

.
"Online travel agents providing services through digital or electronic platform will fall under the category of ECO (e- commerce operator) liable to deduct TCS under Section 52 of the CGST Act, 2017," the CBEC said.
.

.
CBEC also clarified that the benefit of threshold exemption is not available to an e-commerce operator or a supplier on the e-commerce platform. Businesses with turnover up to Rs 20 lakh are otherwise exempt from GST.
.



.
According to the Central GST (CGST) Act, e-commerce companies have to deduct 1 per cent TCS while making payment to suppliers under the GST regime.
.

.
The CBEC said that every e-commerce operator is liable to collect taxes on behalf of supplier and the tax has to be collected during the month in which the amount of collected from the recipient.
.

.
Besides, the tax amount collected by the operator will have to be paid to the government within 10 days after the end of the month in which the amount was collected.
.

.
Besides, the CGST Act empowers tax officials to seek information on supply or stock details from e-commerce operators.
.

.
"Any officer not below the rank of Deputy Commissioner may issue a notice to the electronic commerce operator to furnish such details within a period of 15 working days from the date of service of such notice," the CBEC said.
.

.
It further clarified that suppliers selling their own products through a website hosted by him will also fall under the definition of an e-commerce operator, but there they need not deduct TCS.
.

.
"In cases where someone is selling their own products through a website, there is no requirement to collect tax at source... These transactions will be liable to GST at the prevailing rates," the CBEC said.
.

.
Besides, every e-commerce operator will be required to furnish an electronic statement within 10 days of the next month giving details of outward supplies of goods or services, including supplies returned through it and the amount collected as TCS during the month.
.

.
These details would be matched with the corresponding details of outward supplies furnished by the supplier and in case of discrepancy the tax department will communicate the same to both the persons

==============>

#Economy:The Govt crackdown against 331 “suspected shell companies” has hit several investors, including mutual funds and small investors, who hold shares worth nearly Rs 9,000 crore in these companies. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs identified “shell companies”  in consultation with the Serious Fraud Investigation Office and the I-tax dept.  These companies have been placed in the so-called graded surveillance measure stage VI, where trading in the security is allowed only once a month with “surveillance deposit” of three times the trade value.The typical modus operandi has been to buy shares of shell firms, jack up the prices and sell shares after a year to claim LTCG exemption.

#In the last three years, the I-tax dept has identified over 1,155 shell companies which were used as conduits by over 22,000 beneficiaries. The amount involved in non-genuine transactions of such beneficiaries was over Rs 13,300 crore.The SFIO, too, has undertaken the exercise of preparing comprehensive digital database of shell companies and their associates. Based on the SFIO report, the MCA has removed 162,618 companies from the ROC.The Govt decided to crack down on such sham transactions after the Special investigation teams on black money suggested a mechanism to detect shell companies and put in place checks and balances to curb stock market abuse.

#Finance:Axis Bank has reduced interest rate on savings bank accounts by 50 basis points to 3.5% for deposits up to Rs 50 lakh.The bank will continue to pay 4% interest on deposits of above Rs 50 lakh. The new interest rates will be effective from August 8.

#Around one million bank employees and officers will go on strike on August 22, following a call by the United Forum of Bank Unions, which consists of all the nine bank unions.The union is criticising the Govt's decision to privatise public sector banks, mergers and consolidation of banks, and write off corporate NPAs and demanding to declare willful default of bank loans as a criminal offence, implement recommendations of the parliamentary committee on the recovery of NPAs.

*EXEMPTIONS GRANTED TO PRIVATE COMPANIES UNDER COMPANIES ACT, 2013 ��� CRITICAL ANALYSIS*

Recently, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs has amended the principal notification dated 5th June, 2015 to provide for some more exemptions to private companies, small companies, one person company, and start ups. This article is intended to analyse exemptions that have been granted to the aforesaid entities by the recent notification dated 13th June, 2017.

INTRODUCTION

1. In the Companies Act, 1956, there were specific provisions which granted exemptions to private companies. However, under the Companies Act, 2013 (���the Act���), there are very few provisions which provide for such specific exemptions to private companies. Taking into consideration the representation made by the stakeholders, Chamber of Commerce and Professional Institutes, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (���MCA���) issued a Notification1 (���Principal Notification���) that provided for certain exemptions. However, the said exemptions are subject to compliance of certain conditions and disclosures. With an objective to provide more exemptions to private companies, the MCA issued yet another Notification2 (���recent MCA Notification���) and provided for some more exemptions to private companies, small companies, start-ups, one person company (���OPC���). The exemptions granted by recent MCA Notification are also subject to certain compliances and disclosures. It is also noteworthy that the recent MCA Notification amends the Principal Notification. This article is a critical analysis of the exemptions to private companies in the light of recent MCA Notification.

REQUIREMENT OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT

2. Pursuant to the extant provisions, OPC, small company and dormant company are not required to attach ���cash flow statement��� to the financial statements. The Principal Notification is amended by the recent MCA Notification and the exemption has been extended to a private company which is a ���start-up��� as recognised by DIPP. It���s noteworthy that the requirement of ���cash flow statement��� remains applicable to the private companies which are not start-ups.

ACCEPTANCE OF DEPOSITS UNDER SECTION 73 OF THE 2013 ACT

3. Pursuant to the recent MCA Notification, the following conditions are not applicable to a private company (subject to conditions, discussed later) for accepting money from its members from time-to-time :

Issuance of a circular to its members including therein a statement showing the financial position of the company, the credit rating obtained, the total number of depositors and the amount due towards deposits in respect of any previous deposits accepted by the company and such other particulars in prescribed form.Filing a copy of the circular along with such statement with the Registrar within 30 days before the date of issue of the circular.Depositing such sum which shall not be less than 15 per cent of the amount of its deposits maturing during a financial year and the financial year next following, and kept in a scheduled bank in a separate bank account to be called as deposit repayment reserve account.Providing such deposit insurance in prescribed manner.Certifying that the company has not committed any default in the repayment of deposits accepted either before or after the commencement of this Act or payment of interest on such deposits.

3.1 According to the recent MCA notification, the above mentioned provisions are not applicable to private company which satisfies any of the following conditions :

Private company which accepts from its members monies not exceeding 100 per cent, of aggregate of the paid-up share capital, free reserves and securities premium account. Under the Principal Notification, the monetary limit was only up to paid-up share capital, free reserves. The same has been extended by including securities premium account, as the same ���securities premium account��� are also shareholders funds.Private company which is a start-up, for 5 years from the date of its incorporation. This exemption has been introduced by the recent MCA Notification. It is noteworthy that private company which is a recognized start-up can raise deposits from its members without any monetary limit. At the same time, the recognised start-up is not required to even comply with conditions relating to the issuance circular, filing of copy of circular with Registrar of Companies, depositing prescribed amount in separate bank account, providing deposit insurance and certification with respect to no default in the repayment of deposits acceptedIf a private company complies with the certain conditions (as given below), it is not required to comply with the provisions of clauses (a) to (e) of sub-section (2) of Section 73 of the Act. These conditions are :Private company is not an associate company or subsidiary company of any other companyIf the borrowings of the private company from banks or financial institutions or any bodycorporate is less than twice of its paid up share capital or Rs. 50 crore, whichever is lower.Private company has not defaulted in repayment of the borrowings subsisting at the time of accepting deposits.

3.2 In my view, this exemption is very critical as it has prescribed three conditions that a private company is required to comply with. The private company in a group of companies will not be able to take the benefit of the said exemption, as it would be either an associate company or subsidiary company of the other company. However, a private company, which is a holding company in a group company, and at the same time satisfies other conditions, can take advantage of the said exemptions. The second condition has been introduced with an objective to impose a monetary limit on the borrowings of the private company. In my view, the third condition is very critical to comply with. The condition relates to no default with respect to the borrowings subsisting at the time of deposits. The ���borrowings��� are not defined and, hence, may include short-term or long-term borrowing or the borrowings from banks/financial institutions or creditors in the course of business. Considering the drafting of the said clause and intention of Government, the ���borrowings��� ought to have been ���borrowings from banks or financial institutions���, but it is not mentioned accordingly in the recent MCA Notification. In the recent MCA notification, it is also clarified that the said companies are required to file a return with the Registrar of Companies in prescribed format with respect to the details of monies accepted.

It is noteworthy that neither Principal Notification nor the recent notification exempts the compliance of clause (f) of sub-section (2) of section 73 of the Act. Therefore, a private company (whether start-up or not) is required to comply with the said condition. The condition relates to providing security, if any, for the due repayment of the amount of deposit or the interest thereon including the creation of such charge on the property or assets of the company. In my view, this condition ought to have been exempted for private company (whether start-up or not) with or without condition or compliances.

ANNUAL RETURN UNDER SECTION 92 OF THE ACT

4. According to section 92, every company shall prepare and file annual return with the Registrar of Companies. The details of the annual return shall be as on the close of the financial year. Amongst others, the company is required to disclose ���remuneration of directors and key managerial personnel��� in the annual return. According to the recent MCA Notification, private company and small company will be required to disclose only aggregate amount of remuneration drawn by directors. The remuneration drawn by key managerial personnel need not be disclosed by private company and small company. However, this exemption is not applicable to DIPP recognized start-ups, which are private companies. Pursuant to the provisions of section 92, the annual return of OPC and small company shall be signed by the company secretary, or where there is no company secretary, by the director of the company. The exemption with respect to signing of annual return has been extended to start-ups by the recent MCA Notification. Accordingly, the annual return of following companies shall be signed by company secretary, or where there is no company secretary, by the director :

OPC,small company andprivate company (if such private company is a ���start-up��� recognized by DIPP).

REPORTING BY THE STATUTORY AUDITOR UNDER SUB-SECTION (3) OF SECTION 143 OF THE ACT

5. According to sub-section (3) of section 143 of the Act, the statutory auditor of the company is required to report certain prescribed matters. For a private company which is satisfying certain conditions (as prescribed below), the statutory auditor is not required to report whether the said company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls. The statutory auditor is not required to report the above matter for ���

private company which is an OPC or small company ; orprivate company which has turnover less than Rs. 50 crore as per latest audited financial statement or which has aggregate borrowings from banks or financial institutions or anybody corporate at any point of time during the financial year less than Rs. 25 crore.

The exemption is not applicable to a private company recognised by DIPP as ���start-up���.

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNDER SECTION 173 OF THE ACT

6. It is interesting to note that sub-section (5) of section 173 (relating to ���Meetings of the Board���) has been substituted by the recent MCA Notification whereby, OPC, small company, dormant company and private company (���recognised��� as start-up by the DIPP) shall be deemed to have complied with provisions of section 173, if at least one meeting of the Board of directors has been conducted in each half of a calendar year and the gap between the two meetings is not less than 90 days. The provisions of sub-section (5) of section 173 has been extended to start-ups. It is further clarified in section 174 of the Act (relating to ���Quorum���) that the provisions are not applicable to OPC, if there is one director on its Board of directors. It���s quite astonishing that provisions of the Act are replaced by a Notification issued by MCA.

QUORUM FOR THE MEETING OF THE BOARD UNDER SECTION 174

7. Section 174 states that the quorum for a meeting of the Board of directors of a company shall be one-third of its total strength or two directors, whichever is higher. The provisions further clarify that the participation of the directors by video-conferencing or by other audio visual means shall also be counted for the purposes of quorum. Sub-section (3) of section 174 states that where at any time the number of interested directors exceeds or is equal to two-third of the total strength of the Board of directors, the number of directors who are not interested directors and present at the meeting, being not less than two, shall be the quorum during such time. Such provision is a hurdle for closely-held public companies and private companies. Taking into consideration that there is no exception to the said provision, the recent MCA Notification clarifies that in the case of private companies, interested director may be counted towards quorum in the meeting after disclosure of his interest pursuant to section 184 of the Act. ���Interested director��� as a term has been defined in clause (49) of section 2 of the Act, but the same is referred to only in section 174 of Act. Considering this, there is a proposed amendment [in Companies (Amendment) Bill, 2016] to omit the definition of ���interested director���. Therefore, in my view the amendment suggested by the recent MCA Notification may not have a long-term effect.

PARTICIPATION��� UNDER SECTION 184(2) OF THE ACT

8. Sub-section (2) of section 184 provides that every director of a company who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, concerned or interested in a contract or arrangement or proposed contract or arrangement entered into or to be entered into with prescribed parties [as elaborated in clauses (a) and (b)] shall disclose the nature of his concern or interest at the Board meeting in which the contract or arrangement is discussed and shall not participate in such meeting. The provision further states that where any director who is not so concerned or interested at the time of entering into such contract or arrangement, he shall, if he becomes concerned or interested after the contract or arrangement is entered into, disclose his concern or interest forthwith, when he becomes concerned or interested or at the first Board meeting held after he becomes so concerned or interested.

According to the MCA���s Principal Notification, in the case of private companies, the provisions shall apply with an exception that the interested director may participate in such meeting after disclosure of his interest. Whether such participation means ���discussion��� or ���voting��� or both? In my view, the MCA ought to have clarified expression ���participate��� in the recent MCA Notification.

APPLICABILITY OF MCA NOTIFICATION

9. Pursuant the recent MCA Notification, the exceptions, modifications and adaptations provided shall be applicable to a private company which has not committed a default in filing its financial statements (under section 137 of the Act) or annual return (under section 92 of the Act) with the Registrar of Companies. By this amendment, the MCA has amended the Principal Notification as well. However, it is interesting to note that there is a reference of ���default���. So the question that arises is : Can a private company take advantage of the MCA���s Notification (Principal and Recent Notification) if such company ���delays��� (but not ���default���) in either filing its financial statements or annual return? Another question that arise : Suppose if the private company ���defaults��� (or ���delays���, as interpreted) in either filing its financial statements or annual return, then is such company required to amend its articles of association (which it had amended pursuant to the Principal Notification) ?

CONCLUSION

10. The present notification provides for the exemptions for various classes of private companies as: (i) small company, (ii) OPC, (iii) private company recognised under start-up India, (iv) private company not recognised under start-up India. For every exemption for each class of private company, the MCA has prescribed separate conditions. The complexity is further compounded when the applicability of the MCA Notification is taken into consideration. Also, taking into consideration the number of start-ups recognised and registered by DIPP are very less, if the exemptions are granted to private company as a whole (rather than bifurcating exemptions between small company, OPC, start-up, etc.), the Government would be better placed to achieve the objective of ���ease of doing business���.

New process of refund under the Income tax Act

Refund process under the Income tax becomes more stricter than earlier through the amended Section 143 (1) A of the Income Tax Act,

The Income tax department is suspecting that most of the taxpayers are getting refunds by declaring the taxable income comparatively lesser than the issued Form 16/16A. The Income tax department also find out that most of the salaried employees are taking credit of House Rental Allowances, Leave Travel Allowances and deductions under 80C to 80U without supporting evidences or supporting with fake documents.

To come over from this issue, the Income tax department amended section 143(1) A, where the tax payer will get intimation from the department regarding the deviation from their salary shown as per filed Income tax returns with the calculated salary as per Form 16 issued by the company or deviation from the income shown as per the Form 16 A or as per the 26 AS.

The taxpayer who gets the intimation notice u/s 143(1) A should reply to the notice within 30 days along with the supporting documents in the Income tax portal. It is mandatory that the scan copies of genuine documents are available with them at the time of filing income tax returns or within 30 days from the date of notice. The actual amount of taxable income as per the Form 16 or Form 16 A will be taken for the computation and it will be processed further by the income tax department if the taxpayer not replies to the notice within the prescribed time.

The taxpayers can verify the Part –A of Intimation u/s 143 (1) A, it will be very clear about the mismatches happened with your filed Income Tax return and Form 16.

Let us know the steps to be followed for replying to the notice u/s 143(1) A to get the refunds or to agree to the additions,

Steps to be followed to reply:
Step 1: Log on to https://www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/
Step 2: Login through your User ID (PAN) and Password
Step 3: Choose E-Proceedings and then Click on e-Assessments/Proceedings
Step 4: Click on the link placed under Proceeding Name
Step 5: Click on the link placed under Reference ID to verify once with your return
Step 6: Click on the option ‘Submit’ to respond for the intimation u/s 143(1) A
Step 7: In the response column you can choose 'Agree for Addition'

***** You can choose the above option if  Income tax return filed with unintentional errors, further your total income will be considered with the actual additions as per the intimation and you have to file Revised return within 15 days from the date of response.
Step 8: In the response column you have to choose 'Disagree to the addition'

***** If your form 16/form 16 A does not given effects to the deductions what actually it supposed to be then you can choose this option, further the relevant documents also to be upload for getting refunds along with the proper reason to be chosen from the drop box. Here no need to file a revised return after a given response.
For Example: (If Salaried employees)

** Choose 'Allowances exempt claimed under Return not in form 16' for the below
Conveyance Allowance - To the maximum of Rs.19200 per Annum
HRA not clamed under Form 16 - But it should be under section 10(13A) of the Income tax Act

** Choose 'Deductions claimed under return not in Form 16' for the below
LIC Premium, Medical Insurance, Recurring Deposits, House loan Repayments, Fixed Deposits above 5 Years, PPF and other 80C to 80U deductions

It is always better to file the tax returns with proper income as per your Form 16/Form 16A, the taxpayer can check 26 As once before filing their Income tax returns for better ideas. Even we can get refunds if there are genuine documents as per law. It’s always better to consult with an Expert before giving any response to the process mentioned above.

Department of Revenue

Central Board of Direct Taxes

New Delhi, 07th August, 2017.

PRESS RELEASE

25% growth in number of Income Tax Returns filed in current fiscal Advance Tax (Personal Income Tax) collections up by 41%

As a result of demonetization and Operation Clean Money, there is a substantial increase in the number of Income Tax Returns(ITRs) filed. The number of Returns filed as on 05.08.2017 stands at 2,82,92,955 as against 2,26,97,843 filed during the corresponding period of F.Y. 2016-2017, registering an increase of 24.7% compared to growth rate of 9.9% in the previous year. The growth in returns filed by Individuals is 25.3% with 2,79,39,083 returns having been received upto 05.08.2017 as against 2,22,92,864 returns in the corresponding period of F.Y. 2016-2017. This clearly shows that substantial number of new tax payers have been brought into the tax net subsequent to demonetization.

The effect of demonetization is also clearly visible in the growth in Direct Tax Collections. Advance Tax collections of Personal Income Tax (i.e. other than Corporate Tax) as on 05.08.2017 showed a growth of about 41.79% over the corresponding period in F.Y. 2016-2017. Personal Income Tax under Self Assessment Tax (SAT) grew at 34.25% over the corresponding period in F.Y. 2016- 2017.

The above figures amply demonstrate the positive results of the Government’s commitment to fight the menace of black money. CBDT is committed in its resolve to eradicate tax evasion in a non intrusive manner and widening of tax base.
