will be investigated against them. The CVC has sought data from the income tax
department in this regard.

Commission chairman Chaudhary said in an interview on Sunday that in general,
the commission has stressed on investigating Group A and Group B officers. This
matter will be sent to the Chief Vigilance Officer for action against the
excess amount of income. He told that the facts and information have already
been sought from the CBDT. Now after this, more accurate information will be
available. After which the action will definitely take place. CBDT (Central
Board of Direct Taxes) is the highest policy-making body for the Income Tax
Department.

about this matter. Given the large number of cash deposits in the country,
arrangements for checking various cash transactions have been discussed. They
told that they still need more information and statistics. For this, he has
taken the help of CBDT. How can he know if the amount deposited on behalf of an
employee matches his income? Therefore, regardless of whether there is an
employee or not, the accounting of each income is prepared without regard. The
CVC is now expecting more specific data from the CBDT. There have been many
rounds of conversations in this regard.

CBDT has given several important suggestions while cooperating. The Income Tax
Department has suggested to take CVC data in this form so that prompt action
can be taken. Therefore, the exercise which the CBDT has engaged in involves
making new programming, determining their validity, and giving accurate and
accurate results.
