A court here Wednesday fixed Jan 27 for recording of pre-charge evidence in two alleged tax evasion cases against Pradip Burman, one of the promoters of Dabur India whose name figured in the list given by the Centre to the Supreme Court in the black money issue.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Devender Kumar Sharma, who was on half-day leave, posted the matter for recording of pre-charge evidence in tax evasion cases Jan 27, 2015.
The court, however, granted exemption to Burman from personal appearance.
The court is likely to record testimony of the complainant and income tax officer Gaurav Dudeja on the next date of hearing.
Burman was granted bail last month after he appeared before the court in pursuance to summons issued against him.
Two cases were registered against Burman under the Income Tax Act for offences related to concealment of income as well as tax evasion.
The cases relate to assessment years 2006-07 and 2007-08.
According to the complaint, Burman was holding foreign bank accounts but he did not disclose this in his income tax returns and there were undisclosed deposits in those two accounts.
