No Extension of Date for Filing of Returns due by 30th September for Assessment Year 2015-16 for Certain Categories of Assessees Including Companies, and Firms and, Individuals Engaged in Proprietary Business/Profession etc whose Accounts are required to be Audited; Taxpayers are Advised to file their Returns Well in Time to Avoid Last Minute Rush

Income-tax returns for Assessment Year 2015-16 for certain categories of assessees viz companies, firms and individuals engaged in proprietary business/profession etc whose accounts are required to be audited, are to be filed by 30th September, 2015. The audit report is also required to be filed by the said date.

The Government has received representations from various stakeholders seeking extension of date for filing of returns and tax audit reports beyond 30th September 2015. The reasons cited are delay in notifying the returns and related delay in availability of forms on the e-filing website.

The matter has been considered. Income-Tax Returns Forms 3,4,5,6 and 7 which are used by the above mentioned categories of assessees were notified for Assessment Year 2015-16 on 29.07.2015. The forms were e-enabled and were available on the e-filing website of the Department from 7th August 2015 giving enough time for compliance. The changes made to these forms are not extensive as compared to the earlier years. Further taxpayers entering into either international transactions or specified domestic transactions are required to file their returns by 30th November 2015 only.

After consideration of all facts, it has been decided that the last date for filing of returns due by 30th September 2015 will not be extended. Taxpayers are advised to file their returns well in time to avoid last minute rush.

    Hopeless Department , Adamant Finance Minister Sleeping Courts .There is a direct nexus can be seen for not giving early decision on due date extension. Are these agencies do Really care for the public sentiments. As its a high festive time is many states of India. ,also jain paryushan parv going on.Also the load shedding / power cut problem in many rural parts all over Maharashtra.how can one comply with the tax Department. lots of work to be get done. May lord Ganesh give sense to extend the date

    Dear Finance Minister,

    Pls Extend the last date of tax audit case from 30/09/2015 to 31/10/2015.
    at least 30 days, it will reduce our work load. otherwise we will admit the hospital in I.C unit. becuse we are working 24 hours from 09 Sep 2015 till date. although we cant complete 50 % of the work. so we decided it is highly impossible without postpone. Now all Auditors, C.A. and Tax Consultant expecting extension of last date.

  6. MANIAN AND RAO says:

    The Govt/CBDT is losing nothing by granting extension of time upto 31st Oct 2015 whereas they gain more by allowing the professionals to do their work to thoeir satisfaction. All are aware that professionals now-a-days have to do more work than that of assessing authorities with greater accountability and answerability to the clients as well to the IT department.. The expectation of the department from the Tax audit report from professional definitely warrants CBDT to grant extension of time now-itself and not after the due date i.e 30/09/2015.
    This will cause undue hardship on professional and results in the need for filing Revised Return but they cannot file revise their Tax audit report.
    Manian and Rao, CAs

    Pls extend the due date for filing IT Returns U/s 44 AB upto 31.12.2015, all are human beings. Fault/Delay by CBDT in releasing statutory forms is it not questionable? no one can violate human rights. But we request Finance minister to extend the due date. We hope for Positive results.
