New Delhi , July 1

THE Union Cabinet on Thursday approved an additional expenditure of Rs 442.03 crore for the full computerisation of the Income-Tax Department. This amount is in addition to the earlier sanctioned amount of Rs 251.56 crore in December 2002.

The additional sanction of Rs 442.03 crore is primarily for meeting the expenses on running and managing the All India Income-Tax Network, the National Data Centre, the Business Continuity Planning (BCP) site, the disaster recovery site and facility management services for five years.

An official spokesperson said that the additional funds are required to meet the enhanced requirements of a single national database as part of the sanctioned project for the full computerisation of the I-T Department and running it for five years.
