Taxman
should dig out solid proof against "black sheep" entities
in the country who claim illegal income tax exemptions from the
government in the name of doing charity, CBDT has told the I-T
department. Asking tax sleuths to crack down on such activities which
lead to huge loss of revenue, the apex policy making body of the tax
department has asked them to deal with these cases "firmly"
as activities of non-profit organisations (NGOs) have grown
considerably and their "regulation" is essential in view of
huge taxes "foregone". "Separating black sheep from
white sheep is not an easy task especially when the tax evaders pulls
wool over the taxman's eyes. However, this is a task with which all
tax officers are familiar. Their expertise lies in providing proof of
the real colour rather than merely naming the colour which even a
layman can do. "While this needs to be done in any jurisdiction,
in the case of charities, the default colour is white and the
officers need to be careful in handling them with sensitivity and
discretion. Charities are encouraged as matter of public policy which
is effected through tax policy and tax administration needs to be in
line with the same," the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT)
said in its latest strategy paper. The paper prepared for
deliberations and action during the recently concluded national
conference of tax officers here, also accessed by PTI, is meant to
guide I-T department officials during the current financial year of
2015-16. The Board has also asked the I-T department to diligently
and "delicately" separate wheat from the chaff and ensure
that genuine acts of charity and well-being do not suffer the I-T
heat. "Genuine charities and charities abiding by the
regulations need to be given full support and assisted so as to
minimise their administrative cost of compliance so that they can
devote their time and surplus for the noble work they are doing. "At
the same time, cases of serious breach of regulations and pocketing
of profits by persons controlling such institutions need to be dealt
with firmly," it said.
