New Delhi, October 7
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) uploaded its 'Constitution' on the official website and also removed the Chennai-based tax auditor firm on Wednesday a few days after President Shashank Manohar promised reforms in the cricketing body.
The Constitution, formally known as Memorandum And Rules and Regulations, was last revised in September 2012. It is now available for reading on bcci.tv.
The BCCI has also shifted the treasurer's office from Chennai to Mumbai.
"Keeping in mind that all tax matters of the BCCI are with the Income Tax Office in Mumbai, the Board has decided to hire a Tax Advisor and Internal Auditor that operates out of Mumbai," BCCI said in a statement.
Accordingly, the BCCI has hired M/S Gokhale & Sathe, a reputed firm based in Mumbai and having extensive experience in Trust matters, as its advisor on Direct Tax matters and as an Internal Auditor for the accounting year 2015-16 with immediate effect, in replacement of PB Vijayraghavan & Co. from Chennai," the statement said. — PTI
