Approval of Tax refund

Reported on March 4, 2011 from Indore , Madhya Pradesh  ι Report #28024

I had my refund for Assessment Yr 2009-10 of the tune of around 1.57L. 3 months back, the IT officer called up my office concierge person about the availability of check. The tax refund check has arrived and he is demanding 10% of the refund for approving the check. His point is: I am not loosing from the refund amount, but only from the interest that Govt is paying me on my refund. At last we agreed on 10000Rs. this last week and the check is getting processed now.
