Krishna, the opportunity for disclosing black money will end on 30th September 2016. Also, the income tax department is carrying on survey, raid on the taxpayers evading tax. Also the department is conducting inquiry and collecting information from financial institutions, banks, co-operative banks, etc..
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.
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.
It is clarified that a declaration under the Scheme can be filed in respect of the assessment year for which notice under section 142(1)/143(2)/148/153A/153C has been served on or before 31.05.2016 but the proceedings have been completed and the period of filing declaration under the Scheme has not expired.
When, the Income Disclosure scheme,2016 under the domain of Ministry of Finance began it swiftly became clear that the government is in serious business of tackling the black money within the boundaries of sovereign INDIA.
The RBI has vide its circular dated 08.09.2016 instructed the banks to invariably accept cash deposits from all the declarants under the Scheme and to accept cash deposits, irrespective of amount, over the counters, for making payment under the Scheme through challan ITNS-286.
As you are aware, the Income Declaration Scheme, 2016 (the Scheme) has come into effect from June 1, 2016 and some declarants may like to pay their tax dues in cash. In this connection, it has been brought to our notice by the Government that banks are hesitant in allowing deposit of large amounts of cash by the declarants under the Scheme, with them, for credit to Government account.
In view of the fact that all the major queries and concerns of stakeholders have already been addressed by issue of circulars and also to provide stability and certainty to the Scheme, it is envisaged that no further clarifications on the Scheme shall be issued. It is reiterated that the Scheme closes on 30.09.2016. The extension of the scheme is out of question.
It is clarified that wherever in the course of search under section 132 or survey operation under section 133A of Income-tax Act, 1961, any document is found as a proof for having already filed a declaration under the Income Declaration Scheme (IDS), 2016, including acknowledgement issued by the Income-tax Department for having filed a declaration, no enquiry would be made by the Income-tax Department
