ACP 1976 is a very strong act.

The key word.remember this dear /k

The burden of proof is on the tax payer.

If u got caught and fail to comply..LHDN may issue estimate assessment based on whatever data they have..and u need to prove it otherwise within 30 days which is hard if u don't have valid documentation to support u.

So the rule of thumb if u don't have anything to support your claim..meet and discuss with them before they issue the assessment. Once assessment issued everything must be in black & white.

Govt should use this opportunity to set an example..but yeah some people in PH or BN will try to be white knight. So it might not happen.
