Fnance Minister in his address to ICAI on 02-07-2016 has mentioned
that effective rate of tax under the scheme is now reasonable.
What is this effective rate ?
As per Answer to Q.No. 5 in Circular No. 25/2016 dated 30-06-2016, no
enquiry in respect of sources of payment of tax, surcharge and penalty shall
be done.
It means that if one has Rs. 145 as undisclosed Income, he shall make
declaration of undisclosed Income for Rs. 100, pay tax of Rs. 45 there on out
of his undisclosed Income. No enquiry regarding where abouts of Rs. 45 paid
as tax etc shall be done by the department. It means against total
undisclosed Income of Rs. 145/-, I have paid a tax of Rs. 45. Hence effective
tax rate is 45/145 *100= 31%.
Before this clarification if I
had to make full declaration of say Rs 145 and out of so disclosed Rs. 145 ,
I had to pay tax @ 45% i.e. Rs. 145 x 45%= Rs. 65.25.
The above view has been fortified in yesterday’ webcast of ICAI
also.
