Indian Overseas Bank Slapped With Huge Income Tax Demand of Rs 642.74 Crores for AY 2016-17
Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) has recently informed that it is facing a significant demand of Rs 642.74 crore raised by the Income Tax Department for the assessment year 2016-17.
The notice is a “Giving Effect” order based on an earlier ITAT (Income Tax Appellate Tribunal) order dated 31.12.2024. The order made additions to the income of the bank after making certain disallowances. Accordingly, the bank’s income was recomputed, and the department has raised a demand of Rs 642.74 crore for Assessment Year 2016-17.
