‘The committee which will have an oversight of all retrospective amendment cases will be notified by this week,’ a senior Finance Ministry official said. The committee, the official said, would be headed by the CBDT Chairperson and would comprise a member of the board, a Joint Secretary rank officer of the Finance Ministry, the Director General of I-T (International Taxation) and few others.
