CAG finds ₹25,085 crore tax gaps from 1,902 lapses, many post‑demonetisation
The Comptroller and Auditor General flagged 1,902 assessment lapses that left a ₹25,085 crore shortfall, with 1,728 cases under‑assessing ₹23,769 crore. Most gaps stem from the 2017‑18 tax year after demonetisation, exposing weak enforcement and potential revenue loss for the government.
