Hi Vinay,
The effectiv tax rate has been fixed as 45% i.e 30% base and 7.5% Krishi and 7.5% cess of undisclosed income.
Please provide the link from where you have interpreted that the tax rate would reduce to 31%

Ya Vinay I got the FAQ,
Yes the Income TAx ha mentioned in their FAQ that the source of tax shall not be questioned , hence this could be used as a loop hole to reduce the effective tax rate for example :
Total Income Declared =10 lakhs
Tax payable =10 @ 45% i.e 4.5
and as source of tax is not qustioned hence total income indirectly disclosed is 14.5
thus the effective tax rate has come to 31% i.e 4.5/14..5

But if Mr A had disclosed an income of 290 crores then 45% will be calculated on 290 Crores but not on 200 crores right??

CBDT has clarified today in Q. No. 6 of circular 27 of 2016 dated 14/07/2016 that the effective tax rate will be 45% only. This anomaly has been cleared.
