Cadre restructuring underway in CBDT, CBEC : Revenue Secy


Cadre restructuring of CBDT and CBEC is underway, Revenue Secretary Sumit Bose has said.
This would lead to more commissioners to be deputed at appellate levels to deal with backlog of cases, Bose said at a post-budget meeting with FICCI members here today.

The finance ministry is also making provisions for the e-filing of wealth tax returns.
“Income tax returns for the group above Rs 5 lakh will be e-filed. This is a move towards using technology so that the interface between the assessing officer and assessee is minimised,” revenue secretary Sumit Bose said at an industry event.
The government had last year introduced the system of e-filing of returns for assessees with an annual income of Rs 10 lakh and above.
