Entering into any financial transaction – Are you required to disclose PAN?

By Shalini Jain 

One of the biggest agenda of the current Government is to curb black money menace in India and one of the step forward in this regard is the change made in the requirement of mandatory quoting of Permanent Account Number ('PAN") in designated financial transactions. 

The need for some pro-active measures to check the black money was highlighted by our Finance Minister in October 2015, wherein he had said "the bulk of black money is still within India. We thus need a change in national attitude where plastic currency becomes the norm and cash an exception".

MERGE DA WITH BASIC THIS YEAR AND DEFER INCREMENTS: PAY PANEL MEMBER

Member of the Seventh Central Pay Commission Rathin Roy has suggested that to meet its fiscal deficit target the Government should merge the basic pay and dearness allowance (DA) of central government employees in the current year and defer implementing any real increases in pay and pensions. This, the member has said, could be done by compensating those who would have to bear the burden of the deferred effect by giving them a “more generous award distributed over several years”.

“I am saying that the increment need not all be given at one go... It can be staggered and made more generous… So this could be done for pay and for pension,” Dr. Roy told The Hindu in an exclusive interview. “Now I am not competent to say whether this is politically feasible or not,” he, however, added.
Last month, the Union Cabinet set up an empowered committee of secretaries under the Cabinet Secretary for processing the recommendations of the Commission.
