What this is

Notification No. 40/2022 [F. No. 285/04/2021-IT (Inv.V)/CBDT] / SO 1910(E) was published on 21 April 2022. Its subject is 2 the Gazette of INDIA : Extraordinary [Part Ii—sec. 3(ii)].

What it does

In exercise of the powers under sub-section (1) of section 280A of the Income-tax Act, 1961 and section 84 of the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act, 2015, and in consultation with the Chief Justice of the High Court of Judicature at Patna, the Central Government designates the Special Court of Economic Offences at Patna as the Special Court for the purposes of both those provisions, within its respective territorial jurisdiction.

Who it reaches

The provisions it speaks to

Left, the provision of the Income-tax Act, 1961 as the instrument itself names it. Right, the section of the Income-tax Act, 2025 that the department’s own concordance maps it to — which is where the same ground is now covered.

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.

What to watch

Where you meet it

In a criminal complaint filed by the Department and in deciding the court before which a prosecution under either Act must be instituted.

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.
