INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT, NASHIK
It has come to the notice of the Income Tax Department that certain sections of the print media who covered the 'outreach programme' of the Income Tax Department conducted on 15/11/2017 has wrongly quoted Shri. A. C. Shukla, Pr. Chief Commissioner of Income Tax, Pune and have reported that tax compliance by the public at large is being hampered due to the negative mindset of the Chartered Accountants and Tax Consultants.
It is hereby clarified that the Pr. Chief Commissioner of Income Tax, Pune has in the 'outreach programme' has not made any such statement. He in fact advised the Chartered Accountants and Tax Consultants to proactively encourage the public at large to improve their tax compliance as per law. Their role in this regard he said is very important in the mission of nation building.
