Eight years on, the SIT on black money has submitted several status reports to the Supreme Court, which monitors its progress.

It was in November 2020, a year after he received an order from the Cuttack unit of the Income Tax Department for allegedly misreporting his income for 2017-18 to the extent of Rs 1.06 crore, that Justice Pasayat availed of the Government’s amnesty scheme.
