A Show cause cum demand notice is being raised if there is any shortfall calculated on the basis of this information, The Hon. Commission in its earlier decision in appeal no. CIC/BS/A/2015/001490/11759 (Mr. Sreedhar Rao N G vs. Department of Income Tax) in a case akin to this has held that information relating to income tax matters of an assessee cannot be disclosed to third party unless the CPIO is satisfied that larger public interest justified the disclosure of such information. It is also respectfully brought to the notice of Hon. Commission that department has submitted all its demand notices in form of Action Taken Notes to the CAG with all the relevant details, who in turn have forwarded it to esteemed Public Accounts Committee for their examination. Both the Constitutional authorities are examining the report sent by DoT. The justification given by the appellant does not establish any public interest at large being served by revealing such information to appellant.
