There are about two and half Crores monthly salaried employees throughout the country. Central Board of Direct Taxes will send SMS alerts regarding quarterly Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) deductions to around 2.5 crore salaried tax payers through a facility launched here on Monday by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley while speaking while launching the scheme said: Tax payers will benefit if they receive information through use of technology. So they can match the office salary slip and the SMS and at the end of the fiscal he will be clear about any possible tax dues. Besides, SMS alerts will also be sent to deductors who have either failed to deposit taxes deducted ot to e-file their TDS returns by the due date. The CBDT will soon extend this SMS facility to another 4.4 crore non-salaried tax payers.
