29 March 2019 Section 131 of the Income Tax Act empowers the income tax authorities to conduct inquiries. It provides powers to summon persons / witnesses, examine them under oath, compel production of books of account and documents, and issue commissions.
The power of enforcing attendance of a person under this section is the same as available under the Code of Civil Procedure.
