Taxman's Data War- Business News
Taxman's Data War
As tech helps tax authorities check evasion and fraud, taxpayers complain of harassment and misuse of powers
Illustration by Nilanjan Das
Last year, a businessman from Rajkot, Gujarat, declared an income of less than Rs 5 lakh in his tax return. However, information collated by the Income Tax (I-T) Department showed he had deposited Rs 10 crore - and withdrawn Rs 7.5 crore - in cash during the year. The department sent him six notices, a dozen SMS alerts and tried every means to contact him. He remained elusive, forcing it to raid the business premises mentioned in the I-T return. It was a wrong address. I-T officials took the home address from his bank, but he was missing from there. It is now in the process of attaching his bank account and other assets.

Bharat Bandh: Farmers' protest at DME choke I'puram & Kaushambi | Noida News
Greater Noida/Ghaziabad: Farmers on Friday protested for around four and a half hours in Gautam Budh Nagar, first holding a panchayat at the Surajpur roundabout and later at the district collectorate as part of Bharat Bandh called by Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) against the three controversial farm laws. In neighbouring Ghaziabad, business establishments remained mostly open, though vehicular movement was affected in some parts as the protesting farmers blocked the Delhi-Meerut Expressway.
In Ghaziabad, traffic snarls were witnessed in Indirapuram and Kaushambi as commuters had a tough time negotiating through jam-packed alternative routes. “I was aware of Bharat Bandh on Friday and hence started early for my office in Delhi but was still caught in a jam on a narrow stretch of road along Khoda towards Murga Mandi, which we used when the DME was closed,” said Ashish Kumar, an Indirapuram resident. “While I was returning I waited till 6pm and tried an alternate route from Kaushambi.”

Lucknow, March 26 : The Bharat Bandh evoked minimal response in Uttar Pradesh on Friday.
Barring a few districts in western Uttar Pradesh, the majority of the districts in the state witnessed normal road and rail movement.
The blocking of the Ghazipur border and the proximity of some districts to the venue of farmers' agitation on the outskirts of Delhi, however, had an impact and private transport movement was restricted.
