Today, tax officers, as per law, refrain from reopening assessment which are more than six years old. "The IDS changes this as it empowers assessing officers to revisit old matters. It is against the Income-tax Act and settled nature of tax assessment," said a tax official in Mumbai. The IDS provisions even legally do not over power existing 6 years limitation and FAQ issued in this regard is not main tenable as per jurisprudence.
