Cases have been selected on scientific approach for which a software has been designed and put in place named as “Risk Based Audit Management System” (RAMS). This software empowers Federal Board of Revenue to focus on non-compliant taxpayers and thus facilitate compliant taxpayers helping build confidence of taxpayers in the Audit system.
