In the first phase, around 18 lakh persons<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>were identified in whose case, cash transactions did not appear in line with the tax payer\u2019s profile. There has been an encouraging response to the online verification process and more than 9.72 lakh taxpayers submitted their response without visiting Income tax office up to 12<sup>th<\/sup> May, 2017.\u00a0 These taxpayers have provided response for 13.33 lakh accounts involving cash deposits of around\u00a0Rs. 2.89 lakh crore. The online responses have been assessed and no further action will be taken in cases of satisfactory explanation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The salient features of the Operation Clean Money Portal launched today are:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Providing comprehensive information at one place<\/strong> consisting of Step by Step Guides, Frequently asked Questions, User Guides, Quick Reference Guides and Training Toolkits related to verification process and other issues.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enabling Citizen Engagement <\/strong><strong>for creating a tax compliant society<\/strong> where every Indian takes pride in paying taxes.\u00a0 Citizens would be able to support the Operation Clean Money by taking pledge, contribute by engaging and educating fellow citizens, and share their experiences and provide feedback.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enabling Transparent Tax Administration<\/strong> by sharing status reports (including sanitized cases and explanation of verification issues) and thematic analysis reports (e.g. taxpayer segment analysis of cash deposit data).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The ITD on-boarded two specialised data analytics agencies and a business process management agency to augment departmental capability in analyzing large volumes of cash deposit data, track the compliance status of taxpayers and reporting entities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In Phase II of Operation Clean Money, the high risk cases will be handled by selecting appropriate enforcement action (verification, search, survey, scrutiny). A targeted campaign will be initiated in cases with identified risk issues. The key components of the targeted campaign are:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Communication of specific issue through digital channels (Email, SMS etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Providing detailed explanation to create environment of transparency<\/li>\n<li>Sharing investigation findings for specific segments (e.g. Jewellers, petrol pump, traders, property purchasers etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Centralised monitoring and gradual escalation of inadequate response cases for enforcement action<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With the continuous flow of information from various sources including Statement of Financial Transactions (SFT), the ITD is conducting analysis in conjunction with previously available\/analysed data. Such incremental data analysis has already led to identification of new cases for e-verification. Furthermore, ITD has also identified 3.71 lakh new accounts relating to 1.58 lakh taxpayers who made partial declaration of accounts\/amounts in their earlier responses.\u00a0 In addition to the earlier 18 lakh cases,5.68 lakh new cases have been identified for e-verification process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Ministry of Finance<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Union Minister of Finance officially launched the Portal of Operation Clean Money\u00a0(https:\/\/www.cleanmoney.gov.in)\u00a0on May 16, 2017.\u00a0The Operation Clean Money was initiated by <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":91,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1188,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-131441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hot_off_the_press","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Operation Clean Money portal launched, will enable citizen engagement for creating a tax compliant society &amp;
