New Income Tax Rules – Submission of false Aadhaar number may be fined Rs. 10,000

As it is well known that the income tax department has allowed Aadhaar card holders to use the biometric id number in lieu of the Permanent Account Number (PAN). But as per new provision of Income Tax, fine of Rs. 10,000 may be levied in case of wrong Aadhar Number. As per the latest amendments in the Finance Bill 2019, not only allowed people to use Aadhaar in lieu of PAN but also introduced a penalty for giving a false Aadhaar number. However, the new penalty rules are applicable only in cases where you are using Aadhaar in lieu of PAN and where quoting PAN is mandatory according to the income tax department rules. It is well known that although Aadhaar is issued by the Unique Identity Authority of India, yet the fine is not imposed by UIDAI but by the income tax department. Under Section 272B of the Income Tax Act, 1961, the department can impose a penalty in case of default in complying with provisions relating to PAN, i.e., failure to obtain, quote, or authenticate PAN.

            In the name of austerity measures, the Govt. has decided and notified complete ban on creation of Posts and filling up of vacancies once again.  Even the filling up of existing vacancies that are lying vacant for various reasons for more than a year is also brought under the ambit of the orders issued on 18.9.2013.  The Confederation has decided to oppose the retrograde steps of the Government by organising massive protest demonstration in front of all office on 25th September, 2013.  Since we are in the process of allocation and filling up of the posts sanctioned by the Cabinet under Cadre Restructuring, it is far more important for us to resist such moves with all force at our command. All the Circle General Secretaries are requested to carry out Lunch hour demonstration in front of IT Offices or in a common place along with other organisations participating in the Confederation. The Circular No. 7 of the Confederation issued on 20.09.2013 is attached.

            Cadre restructuring and its implementation:  The various Sub-committees constituted by the Board to suggest the method of implementation are yet to finalise their report.  The One committee which has submitted their report (Committee for merger of Directorate) has totally rejected our views in this regard.  The committee did not even consider to record and provide the minutes of the meetings.  The matter has been brought to the notice of the Chairperson and Member (P&V) today, who have assured us to look into the matter and amicable settlement.  The Committee looking after the Allocation of posts and Jurisdiction also indicated different yardstick for allocation and jurisdiction.  Our stand with further justifications has again been placed before the committee which is reconsidering all aspect in this regard and assured due consideration of our views before finalisation of the report.

DA will be 100% w.e.f. January 2014

Now it is very clear from the AICPIN issued today that DA will be 100% w.e.f. January 2014. Decline in AICPIN for December, 2013 vanished the expectation for crossing the DA from 100%. However, it will give a great relief to Central Government Employees and Pensioners as DA will be enhanced by 10% again. View ITian India on Facebook View statistics data for AICPIN here
