Worryingly for taxpayers, there is confusion in the air about AIR (annual information return) ever since the taxman issued an FAQ relating to ITR (income-tax return) forms. FAQs are supposed to clarify things but what is causing puzzlement to assessees is the `limit’ relating to financial transactions for AIR, specified in one of the `frequently asked’ questions, posted recently on www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in. Question number 64, the last in the list, reads: “In schedule of AIR of all ITRS relating to financial transactions whether the limit fixed is for aggregate or single in each category as shown in the following transactions:

“It is true that the Division Bench of the High Court has borrowed extensively from the orders of the Tribunal and the Commissioner and passed them off as if they were themselves the author’s,” noted the apex court. “We feel that quoting from an order of some authority particularly a specialised one cannot per se be faulted as this procedure can often help in making for brevity and precision, but we agree with Mr Vahanavati to the extent that any `borrowed words’ used in a judgment must be acknowledged as such in any appropriate manner as a courtesy to the true author(s).”
This programme of enterprise-wide risk management was highly successful and resulted in substantial savings and structured decision-making with learnings for the company. The Board appreciated the consulting role of the Internal Audit Department which had fulfilled its role aptly described as ‘Best Practice Transfer and Risk Management’ and directed the CIA to ensure that this programme was spread to all functions of the company. The Board also directed the CIA to submit a list of top 50 risks (along with remedial measure taken and proposals for taking remedial measures, if not already undertaken) identified during the exercise every quarter. The structure of risk management within the company was thus institutionalised.
The Income-tax Department is required to give credit for TDS based on the annual information in NSDL site. The assessee can register his PAN and view the status of TDS, advance tax and self-assessment tax (annual tax statement AS 26). Credit for TDS is given to deductees based on the returns submitted by the deductor. In the event of the returns being rejected for mismatch of challans or non- quoting of PAN numbers of some of the deductees, assessees have no remedy to get credit for TDS in the absence of rectification of returns by the deductor.
The Government has come to the rescue of high net worth individuals on the borderline from an additional tax liability that goes beyond the income in excess of Rs 10 lakh. By way of a rule of thumb, the financial world condescends to grant the hallowed status of high net worth (HNW) individuals on those with assets of Rs 5 crore and more. The income-tax law on this touchstone ought to have imposed surcharge of 10 per cent on those having income of Rs 1 crore or more assuming 20 per cent return on wealth to be normal as a rule of thumb.
the Court direct the department to accept the return Forms which are submitted by the taxpayers, subject to a genuine difficulty. After acceptance of those return Forms, on scrutiny if it is found by the concerned officer that there is no genuine difficulty on the part of the taxpayer in giving the details required in various columns, those Forms may finally be treated as not filed as required, and they will be subject to final decision taken by the concerned officer. However, it is also made clear that if under the rules no Annexures are required to be attached then no Annexures shall be attached to the return Form.
