FINANCE BILL, 2011
Statements - Notes - Memorandum
  • Contents

Clause 34 of the Bill seeks to amend section 22D of the Wealth-tax Act, 1957 relating to procedure on receipt of the application under section 22C.

The existing provisions contained in sub-section (4) of the aforesaid section 22D provide that the Settlement Commission may pass orders on the matters covered by the applications received by it.

It is proposed to insert a new sub-section (6B) in the said section so as to provide that the Settlement Commission may, at any time within a period of six months from the date of the order, with a view to rectifying any mistake apparent from the record, amend any order passed by it under sub-section (4).

It further provides that an amendment which has the effect of modifying liability of the applicant, shall not be made under this sub-section unless the Settlement Commission has given notice to the applicant and the Commissioner of its intention to do so and has allowed the applicant and the Commissioner an opportunity of being heard.

This amendment will take effect from 1st June, 2011.
