By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, Dec 18 � The CAG has pulled up the Income Tax Department for not recovering tax arrears worth over Rs 4,500 crore from various entities due to a lack of coordination between two of its wings.

The government auditor, in its latest report tabled in Parliament, said it �found several cases where the Assessing Officers (AOs) did not communicate updated information relating to demands to Tax Recovery Officers (TROs).�

�We noticed 1,54,198 cases involving outstanding demands of Rs 4,543.83 crore where the demand was not transferred to the TROs inspite of non-recovery for more than one year,� the CAG report said. � PTI
