In the first case, an Income Tax\u00a0officer from New Delhi allegedly demanded a bribe\u00a0of Rs 5 lakh from an Andheri resident\u00a0to demand\u00a0a Rs 1 crore demand notice.<\/p>\n<p>In the second case, another Income Tax\u00a0officer\u00a0from Jalgaon allegedly asked a bribe from a doctor to cancel a fresh PAN card. The complainant, who manages a hospital, had lost her PAN Card and applied for a new one in 2018, which made it impossible to pay income tax. As a result, she went to the Income Tax portal\u00a0and submitted an online application to cancel the freshly issued card.<\/p>\n<p>In the first case, on March 4, the CBI got a complaint from an Andheri resident whose father (a high-tax payer) had received the notice on January 21 for 2019-20 and 2020-21. The man received a WhatsApp call from someone portraying himself as Sanjay Kumar from the New Delhi Income Tax\u00a0office, pointing to that a demand notice for Rs.1 crore will be issued. He then asked the officer\u00a0to speak with her daughter. Kumar demanded\u00a0Rs.5 lakh from the complainant and stated that his supervisors want the case closed\u00a0by February 28, citing March as the deadline.<\/p>\n<p>Kumar connected with the two over WhatsApp from February 5 to 24, and he requested to reduce the amount. He asked for time to consult with his superiors before negotiating it down to Rs.2 lakh. The money was sought\u00a0either through a hawala route or in person at his Delhi office.<\/p>\n<p>While in the second case, a doctor submitted a written complaint dated March 11. The doctor and her colleague met Rakesh Ranjan, an Income Tax\u00a0officer in Jalgaon, and submitted the necessary documentation as instructed. Despite numerous follow-ups, the newly issued PAN Card was not revoked. On March 10, Ranjan demanded\u00a0Rs.10,000 and negotiated it down to Rs.5,000 in exchange for delivery to an office peon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #000; \">\n<p>Join StudyCafe Membership.
