As it is well known that the income tax department has allowed Aadhaar card holders to use the biometric id number in lieu of the Permanent Account Number (PAN). But as per new provision of Income Tax, fine of Rs. 10,000 may be levied in case of wrong Aadhar Number. As per the latest amendments in the Finance Bill 2019, not only allowed people to use Aadhaar in lieu of PAN but also introduced a penalty for giving a false Aadhaar number. However, the new penalty rules are applicable only in cases where you are using Aadhaar in lieu of PAN and where quoting PAN is mandatory according to the income tax department rules. It is well known that although Aadhaar is issued by the Unique Identity Authority of India, yet the fine is not imposed by UIDAI but by the income tax department. Under Section 272B of the Income Tax Act, 1961, the department can impose a penalty in case of default in complying with provisions relating to PAN, i.e., failure to obtain, quote, or authenticate PAN.

TAX EMPLOYEES FEDERATION
Manishinath
Bhawan A/2/95 Rajouri Garden,
New
Delhi. 110 027.
Cir. No. 33/12-15 Dated: 22.11.2013.
Dear Comrades:
Quarterly Review Meeting with
Chairman- Deferred- Regarding-
The meeting was scheduled to be
held on 22.11.2013 at 3PM. The meeting
was convened after a gap of nine months on our persistent demand. To our utter disappointment, we were informed
at the last moment that the Chairperson is engaged in some urgent meeting and
the QRM has to be rescheduled. We were
then invited by the Member (P) and the meeting took place in her office in the
presence of JS (Admn) and US (Ad-IX) from the Official side. From the ITEF side
Coms. Ashok B Salunkhe (President), KP Rajagopal (SG), Ravi B Nair, Yeshwant
Purohit ( Joint Secretaries) and Rupak Sarkar (Finance Secretary) were present
in the meeting. ITGOA was represented by
Coms. Sita Rama Rao (President), Rajesh Menon (Secretary General), R.S. Meel
and Divakar Singh. In the meeting the
following issues only could be discussed.
Implementation of Supreme Court
Order in Union of India & ors vs. N.R. Parmar & ors. We demanded, as
decided in the CWC meeting held at Jaipur on 19 & 20th Oct. 2013 the
withdrawal of the instructions issued by the CBDT in F No. C-18012/26/2003-V&L
dated 15th October 2013 and issuance of clear and unambiguous instructions to
CCAs for implementation or otherwise in a uniform manner in all Charges and all
cadres. The Member (P) assured us that
the said instruction will immediately be withdrawn. We were also requested to provide inputs with
regard to its implementation.
2. Allocation of Cadre Restructuring Posts
for effecting promotions in the month of December, 2013. It was informed that the Sub-committee for
Allocation of Posts and Jurisdiction has been asked to submit its report by
29th Nov. 2013 and the manner of its implementation can be discussed and worked
out in the rescheduled QRM on 9th December, 2013 after discussion with the
staff side.
3. Stoppage of payment to Daily Paid/casual
labours who are engaged and working in the Department continuously for years
and withdrawal of the same. We have requested to withdraw the above
instructions issued by the Board in this regard taking into account their long
service in the Department; the assurances given by the Finance Minister to
these workers to regularise the eligible candidates in the newly created posts
of MTS and in the light of the stay granted by the Principal Bench of the CA
Tribunal. We were informed that all
efforts were being made by the Board to help the casual labours but for the
instructions of the DOPT. We were also
assured that if the Principal Bench of the CA Tribunal has stayed the
operation, efforts will be made to implement the same in all cases.
Anomaly in pay fixation for Promotees
and Direct Recruitees at entry stage. As
you are aware that this point, taken up
in the National Anomaly Committee was not accepted by the Government
other than allowing stepping up of pay wherever possible. Further the ITEF had separately taken up the
issue of fixation of pay of Inspectors/AOs/PS, on the lines of clarification
issued in the case of personnel in the CSS/CSSS (Central Secretariat
Staff). The same was turned down by the
Department of Expenditure. Upon the
objections of the Accounting Department and directions to recover the alleged
excess payments, we again persuaded the
CBDT to take up the matter with the DOE. The Board, with the approval of the
Revenue Secretary resubmitted the proposal with additional inputs, sought the
approval of the Department of Expenditure. Now the Department of Expenditure
have conveyed their disagreement and turned down the claim for the second
time. On this issue, in similar
circumstances, some other major organisations affiliated to the Confederation of
CG Employees and Workers, are contemplating legal recourse. Some organisations have already filed
Petitions in the Principal Bench of CA Tribunal. ITEF CHQ feels that we may also join or
separately file similar Petitions in the Principal Bench of CA Tribunal. Since the matter requires immediate steps, in
order to take a formal decision, all the Secretariat Members and Circle General
Secretaries are requested to convey their opinion in this matter by 30th
November, 2013. The opinion may be
conveyed through SMS or Email in the following format to the CHQ to contemplate
further necessary action in this matter.
“Legal Approach for Pay Fixation
Benefit- “ YES” or “NO”.
Increase of Local Travel Expenses
to Inspectors and Notice Servers. Our demand for increase in the quantum of
reimbursement equivalent to the cost of 50 Ltr and 30 Ltrs of petrol to
Inspectors and Notice Servers was accepted by the CBDT. Additional inputs with regard to
justification of our demand was provided to the authorities vide our letter No.
N-1/O-2/12-15 Dated: 30th Sept.2013. It
is learnt that a reference has been made by the Board to all the cadre
controlling authorities as to what should be the quantum of increase. Copy of the above letter of ITEF is enclosed
herewith. The Circle General Secretaries
are requested to air opinion in similar line, with the cadre controlling
authorities and pursue the CCAs to send their views at the earliest.
With greetings,
Yours fraternally,
(KP Rajagopal)
