New Delhi : A senior income tax official posted at Indore and a chartered accountant were Tuesday caught by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for taking a bribe from a businessman.
The businessman had complained to the CBI that the assistant commissioner of income tax posted at Indore was demanding a bribe of Rs.900,000 from him for the settlement of income tax after a survey conducted by the official and the chartered accountant, a CBI press release said.
The investigating agency laid a trap and caught chartered accountant S.S. Mundra while he was accepting the bribe on the behalf of assistant commissioner Pankaj Gupta, a 2004 batch Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer, the CBI release added.
