GOLD AMNESTY SCHEME LIKELY

GOLD AMNESTY 
The proposal is at an early stage and authorities are seeking feedback from officials concerned
The finance ministry is considering an amnesty programme for residents with illicit stash of gold, as part of an effort to crack down on tax evasion and cut its dependence on imports, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

Under the proposition made to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government plans to ask people with unaccounted holdings of the metal to declare it to tax authorities and pay levies, and penalty, the people said, asking not to be identified. The proposal is at an early stage and authorities are seeking feedback from officials concerned, they said.

Modi unveiled three state-backed plans in 2015 to try to tap the world’s largest private gold stash of about 25,000 tonnes held by households and institutions to trim physical demand, and reduce imports by providing people with alternative avenues for investment. The programmes failed to generate interest as a section of the people didn’t want to part with their gold, usually in the form of jewellery and worn on special occasions.Others feared being penalized by tax authorities.

Consumers who declare their hoard will need to deposit some of the legalized gold with the government for a few years, they said. The administration had planned a similar program last year, the Mint reported on Oct. 30. The tax office had denied any plans for an amnesty then.

Any proposal for an amensty is fraught with risks as the country’s top court has ruled that Indians cannot claim absolute amnesty following criticism that such programs penalize honest tax payers. A finance ministry spokesman was not immediately available for a comment.

Permanent Account Number is basically a method of identifying a taxpayer on the computer system through a unique All-India number so that all information relating to that taxpayer, e.g. taxes paid, refunds issued, outstanding arrears, income disclosed, transactions entered etc. can be linked to him through the computer system. Processing of return of an assessee or other actions on AST software is not possible unless PAN has been allotted to him and is linked to the AO code of the Assessing Officer who is trying to process that return.

Therefore, a new series of Permanent Account Number was devised which took ca...

Buying an immovable property in INdia from a NRI ?

  Buying an immovable property in India, from a Non Resident?   Here are some important legal provisions of Income Tax Act, to be noted and taken care of.   Your tax liability on a property sale will depend on how long you have held it. If you are selling a property that you have owned for more than two years, then it will attract long term capital gains tax. For a property owned for less than two years, you must pay short term capital gains tax. The tax rates are as follows: Long-term capital gains are taxed at 20% Short-term capital gains are taxed as per your income slab Capital gains is the difference between your acquisition price and your sale price minus any expenses you may have incurred in making the sale (brokerage, stamp duty, registration charges, etc.). Tax deducted at source (TDS) When a resident buys property from a NRI, the TDS is governed by the provisions of section 195of the Income Tax Act. So the Buyer must deduct TDS @20%, if the...
