Dear Sir,
Sub: Aadhaar enabled Biometric Attendance System for Railway Staff
Aadhaar-enabled Biometric Attendance System (AEBAS) was introduced in the Railways vide Office Order No.08 of 2014 dated 01.12.2014 of the Railway Board.
In the year 2016, Ministry of Law and Justice got Aadhaar Act, 2016, enacted in the Parliament, which was notified on March 26, 2016. Aadhaar Act, 2016 clearly states that identity of an individual through Aadhaar can only be established in case of receipt of subsidy and other benefit of services which are being provided by the Government. Meanwhile Hon’ble Supreme Court in its landmark judgement on Aadhaar Act, 2016, delivered on 26th September, 2018, has categorically struck down Section 57 of Aadhaar Act, 2016, which says that, “Nothing in the Act shall prevent the use of Aadhaar for establishing the identity of an individual for any purpose whether by the state or anybody, corporate or person”. In view of the Aadhaar Act, 2016 and Hon’ble Supreme Court’s judgement, the following points are highlighted:-
AEBAS was introduced in the year 2014 in the Indian Railways and the system has not been revised after implementation of Aadhaar Act, 2016 and the judgement of Hon’ble Supreme Court thereafter in September 26, 2018.
Section 8(2) of the Aadhaar Act, 2016 made it mandatory to obtain the consent of an individual before collecting his identity information for the purposes of authentication. In this connection, it is to be pointed out that, getting consent of the employee for Biometric Attendance, as per Aadhaar Act, 2016, is totally against the Act, which says that, authentication, as per Aadhaar Act, 2016, is only for welfare scheme.
An additional step has been introduced in the Biometric Machines which seeks consent of the Railway Employees and demographic locations before Biometric Attendance is marked, making marking of attendance cumbersome and the employees are made to wait in long queues to mark their attendance on Biometric Machines.
Section 57 of the Aadhaar Act, 2016 says that, “Nothing contained in this Act shall prevent the use of Aadhaar number for establishing the identity of an individual for any purpose, whether by the State or anybody Corporate or Person, pursuant to any law for the time, being in force or any contract to this effect. As per Aadhaar Act, this is the only section where anybody, Corporate or Person can use Biometric for authentication, but Section 57 of the Aadhaar Act, 2016 has been declared void and unconstitutional by Hon’ble Supreme Court in its judgement in September 2018.
Since Biometric Machines belong to the Third Party, and having software developed and modified by the manufacturer and these machines are connected with the internet, thus make data vulnerable for misuse. Consent of the Railway Employees to use their Aadhaar Number and Biometrics on Third Party’s entity for attendance has put personal data (Biometric and Aadhar Number) of Railway Employees at severe risk in the hands of hackers, who can peep into various Aadhaar linker services of an individual, such as Bank Accounts, Income Tax details and other welfare services linked with the Aadhaar Card.
“Classic example of leakage of Aadhaar linked data has been witnessed in the case of Shri R.S. Sharma (TRAI Chairman and Former Director General of UIDAI (Aadhaar) by the country, in whose case leakage of Aadhar Number made hackers to sneak into 14 services being used by him, that include his Bank Accounts, PAN details and other details, including his family members”.
Taking consent from the Railway Employees before usage of Biometric and Aadhar Number, as per Aadhaar Act, 2016, virtually means that, Railways will not take any responsibility if Aadhar or Biometrics of the Railway Employees are misused or in case of fraudulent transaction happens with Aadhaar linked Bank Accounts.
It is evident that, use of Biometric Attendance System in the Railways, to authenticate an individual for attendance, as per Aadhaar Act, 2016, is totally unconstitutional and violates Aadhaar Act, 2016, against the judgement of Hon’ble Supreme Court and blatant attack on the privacy of the Railway Employees.
AIRF, therefore, is of the considered opinion that the above-mentioned issues be given thorough consideration and remedial action taken urgently.
Yours faithfully,

Subject :- Deduction of TDS in respect of Cash Withdrawal above Rs. 1 Crore by an account holder of National Savings Schemes regarding .
Sir / Madam,
The undersigned is directed to inform that Government of India has inserted Section 194 N in the Income Tax Act, 1961, through Finance Act (No.2) 2019 for deduction of TDS @2% on cash withdrawals in excess of Rs. 1 crore in a year, from 1.9.20 19, and the new provision mentioned in Section 194 N is applicable from the financial year 2019·20. Text of the new Section is reproduced below :-
Payment of certain amounts in cash.
194 N. Every person, being,-
a banking company to which the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 (10 of 1949) applies (including any bank or banking institution referred to in section 51 of that Act);
a co-operative society engaged in carrying on the business of banking; or
who is re possible for paying any sum, or, as the case may be, aggregate of sums, in ca h, in excess of one crore rupees during the previous year, to any person (herein referred to as the recipient) from one or more accounts maintained by the recipient with it shall, at the time of payment of such sum , deduct an amount equal to two per cent of sum exceeding one crore rupees, as income tax:
Provided that nothing contained in this sub-section shall apply to any payment made to,
the Government;
any banking company or co-operative society engaged in carrying on the business of banking or a post office.
any business correspondent of banking company or co-operative society engaged in carrying on the business of banking, in accordance with the guidelines issued in this regard by the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 ( 2 of 1934);
any white label automated teller machine operator of a banking company or co operative society engaged in carrying on the business of banking, in accordance with the authorization issued by the Reserve Bank of India under the Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007 (51of 2007);
such other person or class of persons, which the Central Government may, be notification in the Official Gazette, specify in consultation with the Reserve Bank of India ;
Further Clarification issued by CBDT on 30.8.2019
(extract from press release of CBDT dated 30.08.2019)
“…..The CBDT, having considered the concerns of the people, hereby clarifies that section 194N inserted in the Act, is to come into effect from 1st September, 2019. Hence any cash withdrawal prior to 1st September, 2019 will not be subjected to the TDS under Section 194N. However, since the threshold of Rs. 1crore is with respect to the previous year, calculation of amount of cash withdrawal for triggering deduction under section 194N shall be counted from 1st April, 20 19. Hence, if a person has already withdrawn Rs. 1crore or more in cash up to 31st August , 2019 from one or more accounts maintained with a banking company or a cooperative bank or a post office, the 2% TDS shall apply on all subsequent cash withdrawals made on or after 1st September, 2019.”
2. With this amendment, now TDS @2% will be applicable on all cash withdrawals above Rs. One Crore taken by an account holder in his/ her all type of Small Savings Schemes Accounts / Certificates taken together, from 1.4.2019 onwards. However, for the current financial year (2019-20) as per clarification issued by CBDT, TDS will be deducted on cash withdrawals taken on or after 1.9.2019, even if cash withdrawals are taken in excess of Rs.1 Crore from 1.4.2019 to 31.8.2019. The TDS @ 2% is to be deducted on all subsequent cash withdrawal (from 01.09.2019) to be taken by a customer who has taken cash withdraw als in excess of Rs. lcrore during 2019-20 in his/ her all accounts.
3. Necessary changes in FINACLE will be done in due course to automatically deduct TDS at the time of such cash withdrawal. Till these changes are done, CEPT Team will inform details of such Account Holders in the first week of every month to the respective CPC which will inform the concerned Post Office to deduct TDS @2%. Post Offices have to ensure that PAN number of such account holder are invariably taken and fed in Finacle. TDS so deducted should be accounted under Section 194N and incorporated in TDS return of HO (for HO and its SOs). Account holder should be informed of such deduction at the time of cash withdrawal.
4. It is requested to circulate this amendment to all concerned for information and guidance and necessary action.
5. This issues with the approval of Competent Authority.
