Subject: Extension of date for filing of Income tax returns and tax audit reports to 31st October 2015 – regarding

The issue of extension of last date for e-filing returns of income and audit reports u/s 44AB due by 30th September, 2015 has been the subject matter of litigation in various High Courts across the country. While some High Courts have ruled in favour of the extension of due date, some others have ruled otherwise. In order to avoid discrimination between taxpayers residing in different jurisdictions and to be fair to all, and also in view of paucity of time to approach the Hon’ble Supreme Court by way of Special Leave Petition, the Government has decided that across the country, all the returns of income and audit reports u/s 44AB which were due for e-filing by 30thSeptember, 2015, may now be filed by 31st October, 2015.

Necessary order u/s 119 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 has been issued by CBDT in this regard.

No Pan allotment between 05.10.2015 to 09.10.2015

The Income Tax Department is in the process of upgrading software applications. It is for information of PAN applicants that PAN allotment by Income Tax Department will remain suspended between 05.10.2015 to 09.10.2015 due to PAN data migration activity. However, PAN applications, through on­line and off­line modes, will continue to be received by PAN service centers of M/s NSDL and M/s UTIITSL. The back log of PAN applications will be cleared within three days. Inconvenience to taxpayers is regretted.

Tax Audit Date Extended?- Fake Order doing rounds

Sunday Evening when I was enjoying the evening with family suddenly My Email and Whatapps Message box shown spike of messages which were coming from our viewers and friends. The Most of the Messages/Emails were in respect of one Income Tax order in which it is claimed that Due date for Income Tax Return is been extended to 15th October 2015 from current 30th September 2015.

We checked the Notification for its authenticity and found that the same cannot be relied for the following reasons :-

1. We confirmed with CBDT officials and they denied issue of any such Notifications.

2. We checked the official Websites of Income Tax, Government of India and Finance ministry and have not found any such notification, Order or announcement.

3. Income Tax Press release starts with F. No. while in this order it started with PF N0.

4. in Address of ICAI Pin code is 110001 instead of 110003.

5. Income Tax Office is in North Block not West Block.

6. Income Tax Department do not have ITEN division. Normally such announcement comes from TPL Division or ITA.II Division. 

7. Its been issued on Saturday -26.09.2015 a day when CBDT offices were closed. 

8. At the top date is 26.09.2015 but in signature the date is mentioned as 26/05/2015. 

9. In Subject orders mentions extension of date of ITR but in body the Notification discussed about section 44AB related to Tax Audit. 

10. Due dates for Tax Audit Returns is been specified under section 139(1) not under Section 44AB. Order which is doing rounds on Social media is as follows :-  

We request our readers to not to rely on any such notification unless they confirm the same with official website of Government of India or they may check our website where we will update them if any such announcement comes.
