CPC APPROVED ME A LEGAL HEIR OF THE DEATH PERSON. IN THE FORM 3CB-3CD , WHOSE NAME I FILL IN THE PAN SECTION
To probe further:
Anyone, especially a CA or lawyer in tax practice, is expected to be aware and have made a conscious note of the several aspects with which the Delhi HC has dealt with in its landmark judgment and given useful directions to the Revenue. Those are aimed at resolving the varying types of woes faced by taxpayers in the matter of being allowed proper credit for TDS; more particularly, all such woes requiring to be additionally remedied in the aftermath of the CPC coming into being.
In the judgment, one such aspect, to which the court’s attention was drawn, is noted to be set out, as under:
Q
6. the Returns of the assesses who have expired are filed by legal heirs, and, in case of refund, the same is issued by CPC in the name of dead person only. This causes great harassment to get the same rectified online or through assessing officer.
UQ
As may be readily seen, much emphasis, rather exclusively, has been laid on, (a) tax returns filed by ‘legal heirs’ (LHs), and (b) harassment confronted with in refund claims filed online. Further, so far as could be seen (subject to/pending a thorough reading of the judgment), the referred grievance has not been gone into in any greater details, or argued out, in all its ramifications; hence the court has not been persuaded to issue appropriate directions to the Revenue, comprehensive enough to cover all possible types of situations. To mention just one, besides others, not so covered, is instance of return filed not by LH (in its legal meaning), but by say, an executor or administrator of the deceased estate, pending full and final distribution of the estate to its beneficiaries as willed by the deceased.
Turning to the newly introduced and mandated online registration of LH, one’s independent viewpoints have been shared herein before, in brief though, so also elsewhere, to the best of own limited ability. Now, It is left only to the learned professionals in tax practice, presumed to be knowledgeable, and duly equipped, to take on and pursue to the end of having the inherent problems sorted out, amicably, with the ideally desired co-operation of the Revenue; without unwittingly waiting for the “moment of truth “ (- of crisis ?) to come heavily knocking.
TO attempt and dilate further:
In one’s honest view, the idea silently given shape and stealthily introduced via back door deserves to be given more insightful thoughts; and to keep doing so, until the inherent short comings /deficiencies come to be realised. It is now left to one and all concerned, especially advising /assisting CAs and lawyers in tax practice, in the larger interests of their clientele / taxpayers obligated to comply, to intelligently probe, from all angles, into the subject requirement brought in as part of the CPC in function . And if agreed / conceded, they are expected to pursue with the CBDT to having the things set right. For this purpose, the CBDT needs to be made to realize that the subject requirement, if considered in proper light, is not warranted at all; and is not likely to stand the tests of common sense, being bereft of any sound logic ; and, if were to be challenged, is quite unlikely to find favorable consideration by the judiciary. To be precise, in one’s well thought out viewpoint, going by wisdom to be gathered in hindsight, the said requirement , seemingly brought in ‘impulsively’, suffers from the same faulty logic, fallacy and deficiencies as the other idea of ‘Form V’ rolled out ( – the reference is to the obligation imposed on tax payers, to send a hard copy of the acknowledgment and further ensure to having it received and taken on record by the CPC)- as originally introduced , but had to be later rolled back.
For knowing more, the viewpoints shared on the related/closely connected topic of, – TDS woes , and the genuine bickering of / hardships meted out to taxpayers as given vent and to be found in public domain , might have to be purposely looked into.
To add:
Suggest that any professional in practice, having had any hand-on experience, should usefully share the outcome, for the benefit of the rest, ON: had an attempt been made, and also succeeded, in e-filing by an ‘individual’ as LR of a deceased ‘individual’,- by simply ensuring to fill in the Verification his PAN, but clearly indicating on the face of the return, in slots wherever allowed, that it is a return of income of the deceased , with so and so PAN, for whom he is acting as a LR as per the scheme of the Act. Depending on the success or otherwise of such an attempt,of course, if not successful,the problem would be required to be taken on with, and try and have resolved by, the Revenue by making an effective representation.
Hope the suggestion is clear enough for anyone to get a grip of it.
OFFHAND (To share Own viewpoints):
The write-up is seen to have fairly summed up, in substance, the long list of do’s and don’ts on the subject of, – E-filling Of Tax Audit Report (TAR) & Income Tax Return, To my understanding, these pertain to specific areas of relevance to persons required to comply with the TAR requirement and tax return filing of the law.
In some of the contexts, the term “legal heir” has been employed. This, however, is not seen to be a term used as such, anywhere in the IT Act. In particular, ‘legal heir ‘is not the concept adopted for the purposes of Sec. 139 and /or of the realted/connected sections in CHAPTER XV – LIABILITY IN SPECIAL CASES.
Anyone having an exposure or statutory obligation to compliance with the requirements of the IT Act, including among others the tax return filing,needs to take a conscious note of and be reasonably aware of the implications of the referred provisions. In short, as read and understood by one, those are provisions which must be of every concern not only to a person who is a ‘legal heir’ within its legal meaning but also quite a few others to whom CHAPTER XV , in terms , applies.
With the foregoing in mind, in one’s independent perspective, the guidelines from the Revenue as summed up in the write-up do not cover all such cases being other than ‘legal heir’ as envisaged there under. To put it simply, the requirement of special “Legal Heir – Registration”, etc., do not seem to call for compliance by all others who are obligated to file a tax return as “legal representatives” or “representative assesses” coming within the purview of the “SPECIAL CASES”.
No need to add, the foregoing aspects are of every relevance, also to tax return filing under the status of ‘individual’, on behalf of ‘deceased’ , as his legal representative, including a designated nominee, in respect of ‘income’ accruing or arising or received up to the date of demise, for which a separate tax return has to be filed. Recommend to have a mindful look into the applicable separate guidelines/FAQs available online, to have a clear-cut understanding, with no unwarranted confusion in anyone’s own mind.
Over to the law experts at large, particularly in tax practice, to make an in-depth study; and take up the matter suitably with the CBDT , to the end of having resolved all the problems faced or foreseen in e-filing , at the earliest.
In pith and substance, the suggestion is that, should it be called for, the shortcomings/deficiencies in the CPC in place should be plugged in with necessary correctives, so that e-filing is made quite simple, taxpayer friendly and hassle- free.
If an assessee is not required to get its accounts audited u,s 44ab, but the bank in which he is having cc limit asks for his audit report then what should he do

Very Good Practical Suggestion even at this last hour
Dear CA Mr. Nitesh,
Relating to Signing of TAR..
why “before specified date” here means 30th sept. 11:59:59…
on plain reading it is before specified date i.e. by 29th sep.
if here before means same date than there is no meaning of “on or before” specified date.
Kindly clarify.
THanks for comprehensive tips
