The Income Tax Department has initiated Project Insight to focus on three goals namely (i) to promote voluntary compliance and deter non-compliance; (ii) to impart confidence that all eligible persons pay appropriate tax; and (iii) to promote fair and judicious tax administration. Under this project, an integrated data warehousing and analytical platform has been rolled out. The project also operationalizes two centers namely Income Tax Transaction Analysis Centre (INTRAC) and Compliance Management Centralized Processing Centre (CMCPC).

The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), vide notification No. 137 /2021, dated 13-12-2021, notified the e-Verification Scheme, 2021. The Scheme aims to share and verify such financial transaction information with the taxpayer, which appears to be either unreported or underreported in the taxpayer’s Income-tax Return (ITR). Under this scheme, the Income Tax Department may issue notice u/s 133(6)/ letterto person/ entity whose case/ connected case has been selected under the e-Verification Scheme, 2021.
