The transfers on Tuesday, included officials of the rank of Commissioner of assistant and deputy commissioners of income tax and principal chief commissioner, principal director general and director general of income tax. 

According to circular, passed by the Central Board of Direct Tax ( CBDT), the transfer includes 104 assistant and deputy commissioners of income tax and three principal chief commissioner grade transfers. 

"The following officers are transferred and posted as indicates against names of each of them with immediate effect and until further order," the two circulars signed by Brij Mohan, Under Secretary to Government of India said. The order came on law Tuesday night.
