The Delhi High Court has directed Private Secretaries of Supreme Court and High Court judges who have filed their income tax returns under the new tax regime, pursuant to the Court's earlier interim order concerning the taxability of judicial allowances, to furnish details including their PAN and return particulars to the Income Tax Department. Under the earlier order, the Court had directed that income tax returns filed by judges covered by the interim order “shall not be processed” pending consideration of the challenge concerning the tax treatment of judicial allowances. The Income Tax Department submitted that the direction created a procedural difficulty because income tax returns are processed electronically through computer-generated programming at the Centralised Processing Centre (CPC). The software, it was submitted, cannot identify whether a particular return belongs to a sitting High Court or Supreme Court judge.
