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.
ITEF issued a new circular
on various issues. The contents of the circular is as under
“Cadre
Restructuring and filling up of posts.
We hope by this time in all
Circles the process of filling up of Additionally allotted posts of Cadre
Restructuring including consequential vacancies for the RY 2013-14 in the
cadres of Group B & C would have taken place. In any Charge, if this has not been completed
or only partly done, the same may be intimated to the CHQ with reasons for the
delay for taking up the matter with the Board for further necessary
instructions. As informed in the CWC meeting held on 1st June, 2014,
the RRs for all group B & C cadres have been finalized and submitted to the
Secretary (Revenue) for approval. The same will be submitted to the Department
of Personnel for its approval. The CHQ is pursuing the matter for its early
clearance. The instructions for conducting the DPCs for the RY 2014-15 will be
issued only after approval of the RR. In the event of delay in getting the RRs
approved, alternative ways will be explored for filling up of the posts for RY
2014-15.

Diversion
of Cadre Restructuring posts.
As per the decision and
directions of the CWC, the CHQ has devised a formula for diversion of certain
posts in ITO and ITI cadres to the circles to which the allocation of posts is
either nil or much less than the proposal of the ITEF. The formula devised is
to take some posts from the circles which got more posts than the proposal of
ITEF and to proportionally allocate the same to the deficient Circles. As
decided in the CWC, and before taking up the matter with the authorities, the
CHQ wish to elicit the opinion of all circles especially from where such posts
are to be taken out. The formula devised and the calculation based on that is
annexed to this Circular. All circles are requested to convey their opinion on
the matter by 10th July, 2014.
Secretariat
Meeting.
The next Secretariat meeting will
be held at Manishinath Bhawan, New Delhi, on 18th July, 2014 at 10AM to 4 PM.
Since the main agenda item is to discuss and approve the final memorandum to
the VII-CPC, it has been decided to hold an extended Secretariat Meeting with
the participation of all Circle General Secretaries who are not members of the
Secretariat. Accordingly the Secretariat Members and the General Secretaries
may plan their travel.”
