Notes ban: I-T dept gets over Rs 300 crore declarations under PMGKY

NEW DELHI: The Income Tax department has received confirmations for over Rs 300 crore declarations from across the country till now as part of the ongoing black money window called the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojna (PMGKY), brought out by the Government post demonetisation.

Officials said I-T department offices across the country have got a number of small to big declarations in this regard after the taxman launched a large number of search, survey, seizure and electronic database analysis operations to check stash funds hoarded or generated post the November 8, 2016 notes ban.

A top I-T department official confirmed that the declarations have reached “well above Rs 300 crore as per latest updated data.”

An analysis report prepared in this regard, said the latest declarations worth about Rs 140 crore have come from a clutch of over three dozen jewellers based in 16 cities of Maharashtra after the department carried out searches and surveys against them. (AGENCIES)
