THE COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX –(APPEALS) XVII
NATURE VIEW BUILDING
NEAR H K HOUSE
ASHRAM ROAD
AHMEDABAD

Respected Sir,

SUBJECT: APPEAL HEARING FIXED FOR HEARING ON 18-01-2005 FOR THE ASSESSMENT YEAR 96-97 AND 97-98 IN RESPECT OF PERSONAL AS WELL AS MY HUF ASSESSMENTS.
REFERENCE:_ MY VARIOUS LETTERS ADDRESSED TO YOU PENDING FOR YOUR KIND REPLY.
===============================================================

This is in reference to the above referred appeals pending before you for hearing and the notice being served to me on 11-1-2005 for fixing date of hearing today on 18-1-2005. You would appreciate that issue of such short notice is not proper on your part.

I would like to draw your attention once again that , I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE Detailed replies to my letters addressed to you from time to time. I once again request you to furnish detailed replies in this regard for the orders passed by the concerned Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) who passed orders against the assessing officers in case of my wife and my children.

You would appreciate that my family members have requested the assessing officer at the time of assessment proceedings to obtain documentary evidences from Dhanyushya, Jalundhwala, Kashiparekh, Shah and Shah ,etc along with recording of their statement while giving them opportunity to cross examine them. This has been not done by them . It also appears that the concerned CIT(Appeals ) who passed orders has also not done so with tacit collusion of the tax- consultant who appeared on behalf of my wife and my children before the concerned CIT-Appeals .

You would also appreciate that as I am head of my family , I am under moral obligation to protect my family members from the department officials and as I have realized that CIT –V , Mr. M.C.Katheria located in Narayan Chambers and the staff working under him has used means of coercion to demand taxes on presumption basis my using means of fear and scare. Mr. Katheria had directed that because my family members have paid , I also should pay taxes without offering legitimate reasons.

As. I have reason to feel that the orders have been passed against the orders passed by the assessing officer , I have reason to assert that the department officials are incompetent to discharge their duties effectively in the income tax department.

As the department has victimized me and my family and have suffered a lot , this is my open NON-COPERATION TO YOU TILL YOU BLOW WHISTLE AGAINST THE DEPARTMENT OFFICIALS AND THE CONNECTED CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS AND HANDA GROUP. The way my family has suffered , I would not like other families get trampled by the high handedness of the income tax department and I have mentally accepted death because I am putting on a fight with the might for a right and just cause.

Kindly wait till the findings are made available on account of my present email to President of India.

However, as an abundant precautionary measure to protect the legitimate interest of revenue , you shall instruct the Tax recovery officer to attach the immoveable properties referred to him vide my letters addressed to him from time to time.

You would be pleased to know that CBI has filed criminal case against some of the borrowers of Global Trust Bank as per the announcement on January 3 ,2005. This particular matter involves Global Trust Bank and hence , it is necessary that you think twice before you take any adverse action against me.

Moreover, your failure to blow whistle against the senior officials of the income tax department as well as the Handa group and others would put your motives as well as your integrity under suspicion. It is your choice whether you want to jeopardize your self and your family to help the crooks in the department and connected with the Handa group.

You are free to make a free choice by listening to the voice of your conscience at a time when your mind is at rest. I look forward to your detailed reply in this regard.

Thanking you.

Yours obediently,

Pankaj S Mody
