It also said that no coercive action or measures to recover the demands of completed assessment under income tax would be taken against such firms.

CBDT has stated that a decision on issues relating to recognition of these startups including the issue of premium among others will be taken on the basis of recommendations of a committee of eminent experts. It also said that the committee of experts will make recommendations on individual cases of recognised startups. It added that in this regard, a notification by the DIPP will be issued shortly.
