<h1>Tax Authorities Gain Broader Powers to Request Information from Individuals Under New Clause 259 for Enhanced Compliance</h1> A new provision in the Income Tax Bill, 2025 empowers prescribed income-tax authorities to request information from any person for verifying existing data. Clause 259 allows authorities to issue notices specifying the form, manner, and timeline for furnishing relevant information. The provision aims to enhance tax administration efficiency, promote compliance, and support digital transformation of information gathering processes. It closely mirrors the existing Section 133C of the Income-tax Act, 1961, with standardized procedures for information processing and utilization.
