<h1>CBDT Audit Reveals Widespread Non-Compliance in Income-Tax Refund Procedures Across Multiple Regions; Calls for Strict Adherence.</h1> Instructions from the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) highlight deficiencies in the adherence to procedures for issuing and managing refund vouchers in Income-tax Wards. A test audit revealed widespread non-compliance with established protocols, including the writing and verification of refund vouchers, tallying paid vouchers with office copies, and conducting quarterly verifications. These lapses were noted across numerous regions, including Punjab, Andhra Pradesh, and Kerala. The circular urges Commissioners of Income-tax and Inspecting Assistant Commissioners to enforce strict compliance with these procedures to prevent fraudulent activities and ensure accountability in refund processing.
