JUDGMENT

BY THE COURT :

The petitioner in this petition filed as PIL prayed for direction against respondents to file current status report about the post-Voluntary Disclosure Income Scheme (VDIS) 1997, situation with regard to deductions and their foreign origin employees indicating whether after availing themselves of the provisions of the VDIS 1997, deductors have been deducting the requisite amount of tax from their employees’ salaries/perks and in case all or some of them have not done so what action has been taken or is proposed to be taken against them.

2. Mr. Jolly appearing for the Revenue has handed over for our perusal a statement with respect to 16 parties from which it appears that against some of them, as a result of survey under s. 133A of the IT Act, additional tax and interest under s. 201 and 201(1A) has been collected and penalty under s. 271C of the Act has been levied. From the status report we are satisfied that genuine efforts were made by the respondents to take care of the interest of the Revenue and in view of that no further directions deserves to be issued in this petition.

The petition stands disposed of.
