Mumbai, October 20
Employees and officers unions of the Income Tax Department have warned of a nationwide stir against the implementation of the new advance software— IT Biz Application (ITBA) —from October 1, and asked the department to delay the same by at least three months.
They have set an October 31 deadline to the department to meet their demands, which include delaying the implementation of the new software to January 1 and giving them time to learn the new system, and also to stop hiring technical experts on a contractual basis.
The department replaced the existing AST software with ITBA in the seven largest Metros in a phased manner. The department believes that new ITBA system can expedite all pending cases, barring e-mail based scrutiny cases, to e-proceeding based scrutiny cases. — PTI
