Congress' revenge? Baba's trust loses charitable status, asked to pay 58 Crores of tax

This could be a big blow to the man who has established the
light of Yog and Ayurved in India and abroad. Baba Ramdev's trusts
have been reclassified from charitable to commercial and after a
special audit made by the Income Tax department, have been asked to
pay Rs. 58 Crore of Income Tax on the income of Rs. 120 Crore from
the sale of Ayurvedic medicines during the year 2009-10.

करोड़ की आमदनी पर ५८ करोड़ टैक्स भरने का आदेश
It is not clear however, if this step has been driven by the
Congress' fury against Baba Ramdev or the pharma MNCs who were
getting scared of Baba's growing Ayurved empire, have poured in
some money to get Baba annihilated. All 3, Patanjali Yog Peeth,
Divya Yog Mandir Trust and Bharat Swabhiman Trust have been now
categorized as commercial organisations.
Baba Ramdev's spokesman Mr. Tijarawala has said that the trusts
will appeal to the IT commissioner against this decision.
The sources have also revealed that the ED enquiry initiated
against Baba Ramdev is also likely to get a boost from this
development. The IT office is set to deduct TDS on this year's
income of Baba's trusts. Even the case of FEMA violation involving
Rs. 7 Crores in being probed. Here, it's noteworthy that the total
assets of the above mentioned trusts in Rs. 425 Crores only, and
the tax of 58 Crore has been imposed against the income of just one
year.
Baba's supporters are aghast at this. They've unequivocally termed
this as another abysmally base act of Congress regime aimed to
trouble Baba before his 3 June's massive rally.
