Maximum queries are on Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) and the exempt-exempt-tax (EET) regime. Our officials have to go through all the suggestions," said a ministry official.

The suggestions, mostly repetitive are sorted by a task force of seven people set for the purpose. The task force was formed two months back and has two weeks left to go through all suggestions.

According to revenue secretary, Sunil Mitra, the revised draft of DTV would be brought out in public by the first week of June.

Comments have so far been received from several varied sectors like including government departments, and most of these revolved around the nine areas finance minister promised to revisit such as capital gains tax, Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement, taxation of charitable organisations and foreign companies in India, retirement benefits and income from house property.
