What is New Income Declaration Scheme ?

With the introduction of an Income Tax Amendment bill in Parliament on 28 Nov 2016, the government has proposed a new income disclosure scheme under the name of the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana 2016 and simultaneously proposed plugging certain loopholes in the Income Tax Act which could have been exploited by black money holders.

The government has offered the carrot – the least tax option of the Garib Kalyan Yojana – and shown the stick and closed the loopholes: the hiked tax and penalties under Sections 115BBE and Section 271AAC and Section 271AAB.

One who declared his undisclosed income under this regime shall be required to pay

  • tax @ 30% of the undisclosed income,
  • penalty @10% of the undisclosed income.
  • Further, a surcharge to be called Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Cess @33% of tax is also proposed to be levied.
  • totaling to approximately 50%
  • In addition to tax, surcharge, and penalty (totaling to approximately 50%), the declarant shall have to deposit 25% of undisclosed income in a Deposit Scheme to be notified by the RBI under the ‘Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Deposit Scheme, 2016’. No interest will be paid to the owner for this. After four years the owner can reclaim his money (25%)
