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.

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.
