Further, it was specifically mentioned by the Finance Ministry in its statement that, now the Government will be helped to curb evasion of taxes and also the present actions will deal with the Black Money problem too.

However, it was observed in the last year that, India had skipped signing of concerned pact even after that the Top Court in India had required the Government to make public information which was received by it under treaties.

Now, the Government has signed the international pact is only because, the Special Investigation Team headed by Justice, M. B. Shah has secured a go-ahead on issue of Black Money.

Now, the present international pact which India and other countries have signed is providing for newest Global standards of wide scope and also the same is imposing obligation on the member states to exchange a wide range of information on financial accounts.
