The IT authority does not assume any power to enter the business premises/Office of the CA/Lawyer/Tax Practitioner to conduct survey under section 133A of IT Act in connection with survey of the premises of their client unless the client state in the course of survey that his books of account/documents and records are kept in the office of his CA/ Lawyer/Tax Practitioner.
During a verification of electronic returns, the department found that as many as 1,714 taxpayers under the self-assessment scheme (where tax-payers determine their tax liability and pay accordingly) had not paid their tax dues. In a few cases, the amount due was around Rs 100 crore (Rs 1 billion).
It doesn’t pay to be greedy … especially when you are indulging in immoral activities – That is the moral of this story.In 2002, Devendra Doctor, an informant for the Income-tax department tipped off Mr. Ajay Kumar Singh, who was then the Additional Commissioner of Income-tax (Investigation), of a case of unaccounted income. Pursuant to this tip-off, raids were conducted and the department claimed to have made a seizure of Rs. 1 crore.
The Central Board of Direct Taxes has decided to relax norms on scrutiny of tax payers whose premises have been surveyed by the officials, a step aimed at encouraging evaders to pay up. The decision is likely to provide relief to thousands of taxpayers and it would save them from harassment at the hands of taxmen apart from litigation costs, said a senior Finance Ministry official. The decision has been taken following Finance Minister P Chidambaram’ s assertion that government wanted to send a message that those who comply with the tax laws would not be harassed by the tax officials.
NEW SCRUTINY NORMS FOR FINANCIAL YEAR 2007-08 – In super cession of earlier instructions on the above subject the Board hereby lays down the following procedure for selection of returns / cases of Non-Corporate Assessees for scrutiny during the current financial year i.e. 2007-08.

Also, all NSE-500 companies and BSE-A group companies listed in Bombay Stock Exchange as on March 31, 2007, are covered.
