Hasan income grew 100-fold in 6 yrs: CAG
NEW DELHI: The income of Pune-based stud farm owner Hasan Ali Khan grew more than 100 times in six years – from Rs 529 crore in 2001-02 to Rs 54,268 crore in 2006-07 – the government's official auditor said in a report tabled in Parliament on Friday.
The Comptroller and Auditor General's report said despite the meteoric rise in income, Khan did not file his tax returns for five years. He filed his returns for these years after getting a notice from the income tax department in February 2007, after search operations at his premises.
CAG has added Rs 4,056 crore more to the Rs 71,874 crore tax demand raised against Hasan Ali, who is currently in the custody of Enforcement Directorate on charges of money laundering.
The additional tax liability of Rs 4,056 crore was added after CAG found several irregularities in the assessments of Hasan Ali and his associates. There were cases of under-taxation totalling Rs 3,370 crore and three cases of over-taxation of Rs 305 crore.
After assessment were complete in December 2008, Hasan Ali's taxable income was assessed at Rs 529 crore in 2001-02; Rs 5,404 crore in 2002-03; Rs 2,444 crore in 2003-04; Rs 10,495 crore in 2005-06 and Rs 54,268 crore in 2006-07.
While computing his tax liability for the years when did not file his returns, the I-T department levied an interest of Rs 706 crore instead of Rs 4,056 crore. The department has no record of Hasan Ali's income assessment years between 2001-02 to 2006-07, when he did not file his returns.
In another significant case, CAG found the I-T department had charged less levy on well-known cardiothoracic surgeon, Dr Naresh Trehan. It found surcharge and education cess were levied at 2.5% and 2% respectively, instead of the correct rate – 10% and 2% – as applicable to individuals. The mistake resulted in a short levy of Rs 34.5 lakh, including interest.
