In the complex world of tax disputes and policy decisions, IRS Officer Naina Soin Kapil stands out not just as a Commissioner of Income Tax at the Dispute Resolution Panel but also as a passionate poet. With a 1999 batch IRS background, Naina seamlessly blends her work in public administration with her love for poetry. Her latest All India Rank in the Income Tax Department reflects her deep understanding and commitment to her role, but it’s her poetry that reveals the more personal, emotional side of her life.

Naina’s poetry is a journey through the human experience—love, loss, struggle, and hope. Each verse, she says, is a reflection of her story. “For me, poetry is where I can speak my truth without any filters,” she explains. Her poetry readings are a highlight at many literary events, where she captivates audiences with her nuanced voice and deep understanding of language.

Naina Soin Kapil is not just an inspiration for aspiring poets and bureaucrats; she’s a reminder that it’s possible to excel in both worlds—balancing professional rigor with artistic creativity. Her story proves that passion can thrive alongside a demanding career, showing the next generation of women that they can pursue their dreams while making meaningful contributions to society.
