In this connection, it is intimated that the Education Cess is collected by the Central Board of Direct Taxes. The IFD, MHRD does not have any information regarding collection of Education Cess and its disbursal. \n\nYou are, therefore, requested to contact the Department of Central Board of Direct Taxes for obtaining the information. Point No.5 to 11 do not concern IFD, MHRD. You are requested to contact the concerned divisions in MHRD for obtaining the information on these points.
