Litigation is a scourge for a tax friendly regime. In order to reduce the pending litigation, the Direct Tax Dispute Resolution Scheme, 2016 (the Scheme) has come into force from 1st June, 2016 and can be availed up to 31st December, 2016. The Scheme is available to the cases pending with the first appellate authority [i.e. CIT (A)] as on 29th February, 2016, subject to certain conditions.
Rule 11 of Appellate Tribunal Rules does not require a party to seek the leave of Tribunal in writing to be heard in support of any ground not set forth in the memorandum of appeal, therefore, Tribunal was directed to adjudicate upon additional ground even if raised by way of oral request.
Computer Assisted Scrutiny Selection (CASS) for the current year has been finalized. The Board has approved the parameters for selection of cases and cases will be visible to the Assessing Officers from 19.09.2016.
S.O. 2979(E).—In exercise of the powers conferred by section 295 read with sub-section (4) of section 115UA of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (43 of 1961), the Central Board of Direct Taxes hereby makes the following rules further to amend the Income-tax Rules, 1962, namely:—
Amendment in Explanation 5A to Sec 271(1)(c) even when made effective by Finance Act ,2009 with retrospective effect from 01.06.2007 cannot be made applicable to assessee’s case because both original return and the revised return u/s 153A of the Act have been filed before the amended provisions were brought into the statute (which received assent of President on 13.8.2009).
As regards, concerns regarding confidentiality of the information filed under the The Income Declaration Scheme, 201, it is reiterated that information contained in a valid declaration is confidential and shall not be shared.
S.O. 2972(E).-In exercise of the powers conferred by clause (47) of section 10 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (43 of 1961), the Central Government hereby notifies M/s. India Infradebt Limited as an infrastructure debt fund for the purposes of the said clause, for the assessment year 2013-14 and subsequent assessment years.
The CBDT has so far refrained from issuing any statement regarding number of declarations received, amounts declared or taxes paid under the Scheme in order to ensure complete confidentiality. The confidential handling of declarations made under the Scheme is of utmost importance to the Income Tax Department and the CBDT is aware of its responsibility towards fulfilling this crucial role.
In order to facilitate filing of declarations under Income Declaration Scheme 2016 even after office hours, Pr.CCs.I.T. are instructed to ensure that counters for receiving declarations under I.D.S., 2016 remain open till midnight of 30th September, 2016 in all jurisdictions.
