of <h1>Clause 247 of Income Tax Bill 2025 Expands Search Powers to Digital Media, Raising Privacy Concerns</h1> Clause 247 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025, expands the powers of tax authorities to conduct searches and seizures, particularly focusing on electronic media such as emails, social media, and digital financial records. This clause aims to enhance the detection and prevention of tax evasion by adapting to modern digital transactions. It contrasts with Section 132 of the Income Tax Act, 1961, which primarily addressed physical documents. While Clause 247 modernizes tax enforcement, it raises privacy concerns and potential misuse risks. International examples, like those in the U.S. and EU, suggest incorporating safeguards to balance enforcement with privacy protection.
