CBDT: Govt is Keeping an Eye on Cash Transactions of More than This Amount, CBDT gave Special Instructions to the Tax Department

Income Tax: The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), the apex body of direct tax administration in the country, has asked the Income Tax Department to investigate large-scale cash transactions in business sectors such as hotels, luxury brand sales, hospitals and IVF clinics.

The board said that this investigation should be done without unnecessary interference. The CBDT has also asked the tax department to make concerted efforts to recover outstanding demands, which have seen a sharp increase since the last financial year. In this regard, the board has recently released the Central Action Plan (CAP) 2024-25.

It is mandatory to report cash transactions of more than Rs 2 lakh

Senior officials told PTI that cash transactions of more than Rs 2 lakh by financial institutions were required to be disclosed through the Statement of Financial Transaction (SFT), but this was not being done.

The board has told the Income Tax Department that on investigating such reports, it was found that these provisions are being violated widely. It further said that it is necessary to verify high value consumption expenditure with information about taxpayers.
