Assets worth Rs 65,250 crore have been declared by 64,275 people under the latest Income Tax Disclosure Scheme (IDS), with scope for some marginal upward revision once the full tabulation is completed, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley announced on Saturday.
Given the tax rate and penalty of 45%, this can potentially fetch the government a little under Rs 30,000 crore.

"So this (declarations) could be revised upward once the full tabulation takes place," Jaitley said, adding that the money collected would go into the Consolidated Fund of India and will be used for social security purposes.
"Roughly, the declarations work out to Rs 1 crore per declarant. Some will be higher, some will be lower," he said, but ruled out any revelation of the names of the people who have availed of the scheme. 
"We won`t give any specific information on tax declarants."
