CBDT Rolls Out ‘NUDGE 2.0’ to Boost Voluntary Tax Compliance and Data-Driven Monitoring

New Delhi, November 27, 2025: The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) on Thursday launched the second phase of its taxpayer outreach programme, NUDGE 2.0, aimed at strengthening voluntary compliance through targeted digital communication and data analytics. The initiative will send personalised alerts to taxpayers to correct discrepancies in income reporting, high-value transactions and potential mismatches in tax filings.

Under the new phase, the Income Tax Department will use artificial intelligence and advanced analytics to identify risk patterns while ensuring minimal manual intervention. Officials said that the programme is designed to encourage honest reporting without coercive action, improve trust between taxpayers and the department, and enhance overall revenue collection efficiency.
