Prompt redressal of taxpayers' grievances remains the top priority for the tax department, the newly appointed chairman of Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) Nitin Gupta said on July 24, 2022.
In his message on the occasion of Income Tax Day, he said the tax department has reported the highest ever tax collection of ₹14.09 lakh crore in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 due to streamlining of policies and processes that eased compliance for taxpayers.
"However, we cannot rest on our laurels and need to keep working hard to maintain this momentum," he said. "Prompt redressal of taxpayers' grievances in the true spirit of the Taxpayers' Charter shall remain a top priority area."
