It surpasses anyones imagination how there was such a steep rise in the income for a person who was supposed to be receiving only Rs 1 as monthly salary.

Jayalalithaa had not responded to notices issued to her by the Income Tax Department. This only showed that she had no answer for this rise in income. This was then followed a major rush to file the Income Tax and that was after the DA case was filed.
