Using artificial intelligence, Uttar Pradesh govt identifies over 2.5K tax defaulters

LUCKNOW: Using artificial intelligence, the government had identified 2,558 tax defaulters in the Uttar Pradesh. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday said that while the state tax department was working to prevent loss of revenue through tax evasion, no innocent businessmen were to be harassed.

“AI based data analysis has identified 2,558 traders whose purchase, sale and tax payment dues as per rules were not matching. After an in-depth study of such irregularities, action is being taken with a zone-wise strategy. Only identified traders were checked during the recent proceedings of the tax department. The action is not part of any special campaign and is a routine exercise,” a government spokesperson said.
