Corporate India is not the sole critic of the Direct Taxes Code. The code, precursor to a brand new income tax law, has found opposition from within government, too. An internal committee of the Central Board of Direct Taxes, the principal policy-maker in the domain, has called for a thorough review of the code, including a revision of the income tax slabs and the definition of ‘income from salaries’.
S. 154 (7) provides that a rectification order can be passed within four years “from the end of the financial year in which the order sought to be amended was passed”. The AO passed an assessment order u/s 143 (3) on 24.11.1998 in which he committed the mistake of reducing the depreciation instead of adding to the income resulting in double deduction. The assessee went up in appeal on other issues to the CIT (A) who decided the appeal on 28.6.2004.
With a new initiative, NSDL enhances Form 26AS viewing facility at internet banking account of PAN holder. For this purpose NSDL has already made the necessary arrangement with all banks under OLTAS. These banks would enable the link for Form 26AS at their Internet Banking pages.
In this process, NSDL will approve the organization to place a request for PAN registration. On such approval, the organization has to submit the list of employees for Form 26AS, along with their Valid PAN and Valid Email ID. Once NSDL receives such data, it will communicate to every employee over email and takes the confirmation for Form 26AS creation. On receipt of confirmation from Employee, NSDL will automatically create a login along with password and communicates it confidentially over the email. Employee has to login to such account with minimum days specified and activate the account.
Taxpayers who have registered to view Form 26AS online can view details of paid refund in their Form 26AS from F.Y. 2009-10 (A.Y. 2010-11) onwards. Refunds received during the selected A.Y. will be displayed in Form 26AS. For instance, refunds pertaining to A.Y. 2005-06 which are received in F.Y. 2009-10 (A.Y. 2010-11) will be displayed in Form 26AS for F.Y. 2009-10 (A.Y. 2010-11).
All that could happen, by allowing proceedings to continue, was that the assessing officer might pass an order of assessment or re-assessment. The petitioner would then have a spate of statutory remedies. The judge who heard a writ petition from the Chennai-based Jayaram Paper Mills Ltd challenging a notice of July 7, 2008 issued by Assistant Commissioner of Income-Tax, Company Circle II(3), Chennai, for AY 2004-05 ruled that the reason recorded by second respondent (ACI-T) “cannot be said to be vague”.

Custodial violence is a dark reality in our democratic country governed by “Rule of Law”. There are many instances when it has been examined that how torture is inflicted or who are the guilty persons or who get what compensation in cases of custodial violence. However, very few attempts have been made as to analyse the reasons of custodial violence. This paper is a humble attempt to analyse the reasons of custodial violence, and in this process will attempt to question some myths propounded by the unexamined realty.
