The VCES laddoo

By Vijay Kumar

THE Finance Minister P. Chidambaram in his seminars has asked those in trade and industry to seize the VCES offer, even as he made it clear that tax evaders would eventually be "reached".

What are all you service tax evaders waiting for? The Pune Zone got its prized catch recently. See our Mixed Buzz story. So, get that VCES laddoo quickly. Else you would be hunted and instead of you seizing the offer, your records would be seized and you would cease to exist!

There are only 26 days to go for the scheme to come to an end. And out of these, there are only 18 working days unless, of course, the CBEC instructs the Central Excise & Service Tax Commissionerates to keep their offices open on Saturdays & Sundays !
