We urge all social media influencers and followers of @caas_org to share our representations to the max. We do not intend publicity, but miracles happen when representations thrown in garbage bins are recalled back for reading, if they are of public interest.
CAAS urges deployment of responsible AI in tax administration to end discretionary delays, protect taxpayer data, automate genuine approvals, and ensure every adverse action carries recorded reasons.
Discretion creates corruption.
Automation creates accountability.

AI in Courts must serve justice — not complicate access to it.
CAAS has submitted suggestions to the Supreme Court’s AI Committee on the draft AI Regulations, 2026, calling for practitioner consultation, practical AI declarations, independent audits, grievance remedies, and vernacular access.
Technology must assist the justice system, but human accountability must remain at the core.

One-page CA certificates may look convenient, but when they suppress scope, limitations & ICAI safeguards, they become professionally unsafe.
CAAS has followed up with @icgujarat seeking State-wide acceptance of ICAI-compliant certificates by all DICs.
Professional ethics cannot be compressed into departmental formats.

A CA certificate cannot be rejected merely because it contains ICAI-mandated safeguards.
CAAS has represented to the Chief Electrical Inspector & Collector of Electricity Duty after a query insisted on the exact prescribed format, ignoring professional compliance.
Data can be demanded. Professional misconduct cannot.

A Chartered Accountant can verify records.
A Chartered Accountant cannot certify the future as fact.
CAAS has represented to @CPCB_OFFICIAL seeking discontinuance / rationalisation of futuristic CA certificate formats followed by Pollution Control Boards.
Future investment = management projection, not CA certification.

📋 CAAS vs UOI — SCA/16428/2025
Status Update | 27th April 2026
On 7th April 2026, the Hon'ble Gujarat High Court had directed CBDT to file an affidavit suggesting remedial measures, noting 11 years of non-compliance with the Court's own 2015 direction to release ITR utilities by 1st April every year.
On 27th April 2026, no affidavit was filed by CBDT. Court noted the "complexity involved in the issues raised" involving "multi-stakeholder, multi-tiered institutional process."
Matter now listed on 23rd June 2026 — after Summer Vacation.
Meanwhile:
👉 58 days into AY 2026-27
👉 ITR utilities: Not released
👉 Portal readiness: Awaited
👉 CBDT's affidavit: Awaited
👉 Compliance with 2015 direction: 11th year running — Awaited
CAAS remains committed to pursuing this matter to its logical and legal conclusion, at every forum available under the Constitution.
