It department started SMS service for salary

It department start TDS SMS notifications regarding SMS to salary taxpayers.

You will soon receive a monthly SMS from the income tax department telling you whether the tax deducted from your salary has been received.

The move is aimed at building trust between the taxpayer and the I-T department, by avoiding a repeat of the Kingfisher incident where employees of the now defunct airline were served tax notices when it was the company that had defaulted on payments.
