Income tax relief beyond expectations, Delhi going to benefit the most: BJP
As announced by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, under the new tax regime, individuals with an income of up to Rs 12 lakh will pay no income tax.
A court here on Wednesday framed charges against Kashmiri separatist leader Shabir Shah and alleged hawala dealer Muhammad Aslam Wani in a money laundering case.
After the accused pleaded not guilty and claimed trial, Additional Sessions Judge Sidharth Sharma listed the matter for January 3 for recording of statement of the witnesses.

Wani, arrested on August 6, had reportedly confessed that he passed on hawala money amounting to Rs 2.25 crore to Shah.
Shah was arrested on July 25 on charges of money laundering in a case dating back to 2005 when the Delhi Police Special Cell arrested Wani.
In the 2005 case lodged by the Special Cell, the court had acquitted co-accused Wani of the charges of criminal conspiracy and other offences but convicted him under the Arms Act, his defence counsel told the court.
The Enforcement Directorate submitted that conviction under the Arms Act was the trigger point to take action under the PMLA.
Both have denied the charges.
