New Delhi : Aimed to reduce lengthy proceedings and time taken in litigation, the Income Tax department has activated a PAN-based online system which enables the taxman to access cases in their jurisdiction on a click, amongst a building database of over 5 lakh appeals and 1.50 lakh judgements.
“The new measure will drastically cut down time in appeal and litigation management in the department,” a senior official said.
To ensure more people use the PAN card, the department had recently launched a business application software which uses PAN to track all the transactions and financial records of an individual and entity across the country.
