As a Senior Civil Servant appointed by the President of India to the Indian Revenue Service in the year 1992, I served the Govt. of India meritoriously until my retirement on superannuation in August 2020. In the different roles I handled in the Indian Revenue Service, I gained expertise and domain knowledge on a wider canvas of my experience in administering tax compliance, investigation of domestic and cross-border tax evasion, international taxation, prevention of tax avoidance by multinational corporations for profit stripping structured through Transfer Pricing measures and the use of actionable open-source intelligence, tech-intelligence and shared human intelligence for the timely detection and prevention of tax frauds that eventually feed the channels of money laundering and terror funding. As the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), I also delivered justice on tax appeals by judiciously determining the correct position of law applicable to the admitted facts in an unbiased manner and also by thoroughly analyzing the human probabilities and surrounding circumstances. As the Disciplinary Authority of the Income Tax Department, Govt. of India, I conducted inquiry proceedings against public authorities, who were charged with the offence of corruption. I also conducted anti-corruption inquiries on behalf of the Income Tax Department and handled the prosecution of some corrupt officers quite successfully.
