As reported by the Times of India today, the IT Department was recently “stunned” to discover a lawyer’s unaccounted income to the tune of a hundred and twenty-five crore. As per the report, the raid was conducted at his residence in South Delhi..The same report claims that the IT raid was one of many against people who “get things done”..According to multiple sources, the lawyer in question is Rohit Tandon, the founder of Zeus Law Associates, who set up T&T Law in 2014..The same year, Tandon had purchased a bungalow from Essar Group promoters, Ruias for Rs. 100 crore..Tandon was not available for comment at the time of publication of this story..Lawyers, and the taxes they pay and do not pay, have often been the subject of public attention. In that context, an amount of 125 crore should not really raise more than eyebrow or two; the highest earning senior counsel in the Supreme Court could earn that amount in a year or even less.
