Hon’ble Nirmala Sitharaman Jee,
Finance Minister of India, Ministry of Finance,
Block, New Delhi-110001.
Hon’ble Madam,
It is respectfully submitted as under:
1. Sales Tax Bar Association (Regd.), is one of the oldest and largest Association of Tax Professionals in the country. The Bar Association and its members consider themselves as part and parcel of Tax Administration to ensure that the Government gets the taxes which are just and due to the State and so vital for the welfare activities of the citizens.
2. On the above subject, we respectfully bring to your kind attention as under.
(i) That the due date for submission of Annual Return in Form GSTR-9, 9A and Reconcilation Statement in Form GSTR-9C (self-certified) reconciling the Annual Turnover with audited financial statement is 31st Dec., 2021 for the period from 01.04.2020 to 31.03.2021.
(ii) That due date for submission of Tax Audit Report Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account under Income Tax Act, 1961 for A.Y. 2021-22 is 15th Jan., 2022. The Audit work includes verification of Turnover and ITC on purchases and expenses as well.
3. In view of the above, the due date for Tax Audit under Income Tax Act being later than due dates of submission of GSTR-9, 9A & 9C with Audited financial statements, it is practically not possible to submit GSTR-9, 9A and 9C by 31st Dec., 2021 in large number of taxpayers as audit work is likely to be completed during the period 01.01.2022 to 15.01.2022.
We, therefore, sincerely pray that due date for submission of GSTR-9, 9A and 9C be extended at least by two months i.e. upto 28 Feb., 2022 so that reconciliation work with Audited Financial Statements can be completed by the taxpayers after completion of their Tax Audit Work/ Co. Audit Work.
With Highest regards
Yours truly
For Sales Tax Bar Association (Regd.)
Suresh Agrawal, Advocate
Secretary
