CBDT to focus on region-specific strategies in its Central Action Plan for FY 2016-17

21 Jun 2016 Evaluate

Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) in its Central Action Plan for FY 2016-17 will put emphasis on strategies to achieve bigger tax net. The plan’s focus area will be widening of the tax base and pursuing region-specific strategies. Action points in this area include identification and pursuing potential taxpayers - professionals, businesses and employees. It has drawn up a time-bound and structured programme for disposal of appeals that are pending with the income tax department.

The move comes after, Prime Minister Modi had recently insisted on widening the tax payer base in India from 5.43 crore at present to 10 crore. Modi had pointed out that 92% of the taxes come in automatically through TDS (tax deducted at source, advance tax and self assessment). Only the remaining 8% comes through scrutiny for which there is such a large manpower, so focus should be on increasing the tax base.

The CBDT in its Action Plan for FY 2016-17 will put emphasis on strategies to achieve bigger tax net. Ensuring compliance from identified non-filers with potential tax liabilities. Meanwhile, the action plan also shows increase in pendency of cases before CIT(A) from 2.32 lakhs to 2.58 lakhs, while disposal target for current fiscal set at 1.33 lakhs cases. The tax collection target for FY17 is pegged at R. 8.47 lakh crore. The Board has expressed its concern over Rs 60,000 crore demand outstanding on account of short payment, short deduction and late payment interest.
