HI ALL..
HUM EVERY YEAR KYUN BHIKH MANGTTE HAI YEH CBDT SE DATE EXTENSION KE LIYE ?
ALREADY HIGH COURT / SUPREME COURT GIVEN FAVOUR JUDGEMENT WHENEVER
PETITION FILED..
YEH TAX TERRORISM NAHI HAI KYA ? SURGICAL STRIKE SIRF BORDER PE HI NAHI HOTTA..YAHAN BHI HUM KAR SAKTTE HAI..
WE SHOWING UNITY NOT FOR CURRENT YEAR i.e.15-10-18 , BUT FOR EVERY FUTURE YEAR ..
whether the decision is correct or not it should be ascertained. In the the previous year the decision of Court was if the form is changed then the date must be extended for 1 month.
Now a days govt want to make pressurize to common people and try to forcefully collect late fees and penalty. One day all good professional will leave from this kind of harassment then the govt have to answer to the common people. Date of extension for un-audited return was 1 month but for the case of audit it is 15 days. How Nice!
FOR VOTE BOTH GOVT AND ICAI COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE ON TARGET FOR NEXT ELECTIONS
My vote for nota. This finance minister is wrist. Dont have practical knowledge. A CA can audit only when the accountant of the assesse provide the data to ca. But accountant of the assessee are failed to match the data with gst return. There are lots of problem GSTR-2 are not matching with account. So without match GSTR-2A how can A CA go further. Even biggest company are failed to upload the correct data on gst portal
example
We have received a bill on 09.10.2017 but not showing on gstr-2a when I made query regarding this to the saller he corrected the data in jul 2018 so there are lots of bill like that a accountant are in trouble bcz saller can’t can’t revise the return of oct 17 month return
IT IS HIGH TIME THE INCOME TAX ACT ALSO NEEDS BE MERGED WITH GST – ONE NATION ONE TAX – BOTH DIRECT AND INDIRECT TAXES BE MERGED TO AVOID CONFLICTS AND TEDIOUS HASSLES IN RECONCILIATIONS AND AUDIT REPORTS.
i dont think 15 days is enough for finishing all the work. CBDT should have gone by the representation of ICAI and extended the due date till 31st October. Ministry of Finance should consider the hardship faced by the professionals and assessee .
worst finance minister, dont have practical expierience and his mind only tax not human
WHERE IS ICAI MEMBERS WHO ARE CONTESTING FOR ELECTIONS. THEY DON’T HAVE GUTS TO REPRESENT THE CASE FIRMLY. IF THEY HAVE GUTS THEN FILE THE CASE AGAINST CBDT AND GET THE ORDERS IN FAVOURS OF CA FRATERNITY THEN ASK FOR VOTE. BOTH GOVT AND SUCH MEMBERS ARE ON TARGET FOR NEXT ELECTIONS
THE DUE DATE OF 44AB IS EXTENDED UP TO 15TH OCTOBER 2018 AND FILING GSTR 1 IS EXTENDED FOR MARCH 2018 IS UP TO 31ST OCTOBER 2018, IF YOU CORRELATE THE DATES WITH THE ABOVE THE PERSON FILING GSTR 1 OF MARCH 2018 ON 16TH OCTOBER 2018 AND WHILE RECONCILING THE GSTR 2A BY OTHER PERSON, HE WILL BE ABLE TO KNOW THE MISSING PURCHASE WHICH IS NOT CONSIDERED WHILE FILING 44AB REPORT, THEN WHAT WILL BE THE CONSEQUENCES. THE DATE AFTER 31ST OCTOBER 2018 WILL HAVE RELEVANCE IN THIS TYPE OF CASES
This Extension not use go head to court
