<h1>Income Tax Board Directs Stay on Recovery for Substantial Disputes; Orders Collection on Other Pending Appeals.</h1> The circular addresses the issue of outstanding income tax arrears, particularly those pending due to appeals. It notes that these arrears are often unpaid due to either taxpayer unwillingness or ineffective recovery measures by authorities. The Board instructs that Commissioners of Income Tax (CsIT) and Additional Commissioners (Addl.CsIT) should grant stays on recovery for demands involving substantial disputes. For other cases, directions should be given to Income Tax Officers (ITO) and Tax Recovery Officers (TRO) to collect demands, even if appeals are pending, unless there are extenuating circumstances. The aim is to ensure genuinely disputed demands are stayed, while others are collected.
