FAQ :
The 'NUDGE' campaign is a taxpayer-friendly initiative by the CBDT to help individuals correct their income tax returns by withdrawing any bogus claims, particularly those related to donations.
The CBDT is employing a data-driven approach and tax scanner to identify suspicious claims, especially those made under sections 80GGC or 80G for donations to potentially dubious political parties or charitable trusts.
Taxpayers suspected of making bogus donation claims are receiving SMS and email advisories from 12th December 2025 on their registered contact details.
If a taxpayer receives an alert, they are advised to review their Income Tax Return, revise it if necessary, and withdraw any incorrect donation claims to avoid issues.
Bogus claims often involve donations to Registered Unrecognised Political Parties (RUPPs) or Charitable Institutions, some of which may be non-operational or used as conduits for illicit transactions.
