Only two

(c)

(d)

None

Answer:

(b)

Explanation

• Row I: The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) enforces the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, 2018, but operates under the Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance, not the Ministry of Home Affairs. This is incorrect. • Row II: The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) enforces the Customs Act, 1962, and works under the Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance. This is correct. • Row III: The Directorate General of Systems and Data Management (under CBIC) uses big data analytics for tax policy and evasion detection, under the Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance. This is correct. Thus, II and III are correct, making only two rows correct, so (b) is the answer.
