D.O. No.414/W2016-IT(Inv.I)(Pt.)
Dated: 07th December, 2016
My Dear Principal Chief Commissioner,
As you are aware. after notification of the Government on 08.11.2016 declaring the old high denomination currency notes of Rs. 1000/500 invalid from 09.11.2016, investigation Directorates have intensified enforcement actions in detecting serious irregularities, They are, however, seriously handicapped because of non-availability of manpower. The current drive is likely to continue in the coming weeks.
2. I understand that many assessing officers in the field-formation are left with very little time barring work load. Reorganisation of work can spare many of such officers.
3. In view of the above, I request you to identify such officers as also inspectors and make them available to the DsGIT(lnv.) of your region, immediately.
With best wishes,
Yours sincerely,
(Sushil Chandra)
