New Income Tax Rules – Submission of false Aadhaar number may be fined Rs. 10,000

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.

New circular of ITEF


Recently CBDT has issued a booklet containing details of scheme for distribution  of all posts to all CCAs. View the first 16 pages of scheme for distribution of posts here : Scheme of Posts

It is also well known that ITEF is not happy with the way used by CBDT authorities for implementation of cadre restructuring of the department. ITEF issued a new circular again showing the resentment with the higher authorities. Friends, it is pertinent to mention here that ITEF & ITGOA which were separated at the time of preparation of reports of sub-committees, without any known reasons, now started protest under the banner of JCA. ITEF have decided to discuss the issues in the National JCA on 04.05.2014. Read the contents of current circular of ITEF below

“As informed to all of you in our message posted in the Website alongwith copy of the letter of JCA addressed to the Chairman, CBDT, for the first time the leaders staged the protest before the authorities in the PGRC meeting after exposing the attitude of the CBDT towards the issues raised by the JCA and continued falsification & treachery of the assurances and promises made by them. After going through the same you all will agree that this type of attitude towards the sole representing body of more than 95% personnel of the Department cannot be allowed to persist. Therefore, we have decided to meet in the National JCA on 4th May, 2014 at New Delhi. The National JCA will take stock of the situation and also review the actions taken by the authorities to address the issues raised by us in the said meeting. The JCA then shall decide the future course of actions, including the agitation to be carried out to bring sufficient sanction on the Authorities to settle our issues.”

Now it is very clear from the AICPIN issued today that DA will be 100% w.e.f. January 2014. Decline in AICPIN for December, 2013 vanished the expectation for crossing the DA from 100%. However, it will give a great relief to Central Government Employees and Pensioners as DA will be enhanced by 10% again. View ITian India on Facebook View statistics data for AICPIN here
