Income tax department is seriously focusing on the transactions of high value properties dealing. Sale and purchase of immovable properties creates high value transaction. And in a lot of transactions do not relate with PAN number. So income tax department uses third party information for these types of transactions, for tax evasion and create additional tax collection.
Also there is a huge fixed deposit by the agriculturists, which are because of sale of agriculture land to government, and they generally deposit this amount into the banks for fix deposits or to the money vendors, who gives high percentage of rate of interest.
Income tax department is collecting large numbers of third party information instead of collecting the data from annual income tax return. Income tax department believes that this will play a critical role in tax evasion.
The work for income tax department is simple. Department will match the data between income tax return and the third party information data. If there is any mismatch between two, income tax department will create demand for the income tax evasion. PAN number will be mandatory for transactions of immovable property in urban areas. This rule will come into force soon starting in urban area and then in rural areas.
According to the income tax department, this is now easy to match and create records as more as income tax return are now e-filed with which data is easy to store, match and make the work faster.
