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.
"We thank you very much for the
great efforts undertaken by all of you in carrying out the month long agitation
of non-co-operation action against the nugatory attitude of CBDT in settlement
our long pending demands. We were informed by our circle secretaries of the
tremendous participation of our members in the black flag demonstrations and
walk out organised at the time of visit of the Board authorities to the State
capitals and elsewhere. These actions had its salutary impact even though some
of our circle could not carry out the programme as effectively as others.
The
undersigned along with Com. President had met chairperson and Member (P &
V) today. In the matter of allocation of posts, the Chairperson informed us
that the internal discussions in the Board are yet to reach finality. She has
indicated that the said discussions might be concluded during the next week,
where after, the issue will be subjected to discussion with ITEF to reach an
amicably agreed proposition.
In view of the directions of DOPT
to refer the clarifications on implementation of Supreme Court Order in Union
of India & Ors vs. N.R.Parmar & Ors. to Law Ministry for their
approval, the Board has decided to keep the earlier instruction in abeyance. Also
since the CAT principal Bench has stayed the Board's order stopping payment to
daily rated workers, the Board will issue appropriate orders in the matter.
