The instrument, as the Board published it

The department publishes this one only as a PDF, so the words below were read out of that PDF by machine. That reading can carry its own mistakes — a misread number, a broken line. Check the signed document before you rely on a figure in it.

From when

25 October 2021, the date of the notification.

What to watch

Where you meet it

When a prosecution complaint under the Income-tax Act, 1961 or the Black Money Act, 2015 is to be filed or tried in Goa, and the question is which court has been designated to take cognizance.

On the same provision

Other instruments in this library that name the same provision of the 1961 Act. They are not necessarily still operative, and a later one may have replaced an earlier one without saying so.

What a notification is. A notification is made under a power the Act itself gives, and within that power it is law — unlike a circular, which only binds the department. Its reach is the reach of the enabling provision and no wider, and the date it carries decides from when it works.
