The very saral form

A netizen wrote to us,

“Go around searching in your house on 31st march every year for each penny you have,

keep adding every paisa that your family gets for every occassion or birthday you have,

keep account of cash that comes for every disposal of raddi item you have .
Be off from your work and keep such accounts in the time you have .
Only then will you be able to file a true declaration in the `Saral` form that thanks to income tax department we now have.
If you choose not to do the above then you will be the one amongst 4 crore liar taxpayers that we are going to have,

To keep you company, a senior bureaucrat saying that there cannot be a simpler saral, you are going to have.

Even the congress party feels that the expansion of the net is laudable, but saral should remain saral
