Central Bank of India receives ₹296.08 Crore tax demand for AY 2024-25
Central Bank of India received an assessment order from the Income-tax Department demanding ₹296.08 Crore for AY 2024-25. The bank plans to challenge the order, expecting no financial impact due to strong grounds for dispute.
A tax demand of ₹296.08 Crore is a material amount for the bank. While the bank intends to contest it and expects no impact, there is an inherent risk and potential for financial implications if the challenge is unsuccessful. Therefore, the impact is considered medium.
The bank has received a significant tax demand, which is a negative development. However, the bank's intention to challenge the order and its expectation of no financial impact mitigates the immediate negative sentiment, leading to a neutral overall assessment.
Central Bank of India has received an assessment order under Section 143(3) read with Section 144B of the Income Tax Act, 1961, dated March 28, 2026, from the Income-tax Department.
The order advises the bank to pay an amount of ₹296.08 Crore towards tax liability for the Assessment Year 2024-25.
The bank is in the process of challenging this order before the appropriate forum, citing disallowances and additions made in the assessment. Central Bank of India believes it has strong grounds to dispute the demand and expects the entire amount to be subsided, thus anticipating no financial impact on its operations.
