  7. MOHAMED PARVAES says:

    When form 10 B has to be filed? Whether before filing ITR 7, or on the same day of filing ITR 7, or before the due date. What will be the position if form 10B is filed after filing the ITR 7, but before the due date.

  8. Mahesh Bhesaniya says:

    ITR 7 is not getting uploaded for institutions of 10(23C)(iiiad). The error shows is fill the project name, registration number and date of approval etc and upload. If there is no registration number and date of approval, the return is not getting uploaded. No registration is needed for such societies. If any one has knowledge on this issue, kindly share. One more important thing is this return is to be filled u/s 139(4C) in ITR 7

HOWEVER THE AUIDT REPORT IN 10B WAS FILED BEFORE THE ASSESSMNET WAS COMPLETED U/S 143(1). THE AO HOWEVER REJECTED THE CLAIM US 11 AND 12

If there is no registration number and date of approval, the return is not getting uploaded. No registration is needed for such societies. If any one has knowledge on this issue, kindly share. One more important thing is this return is to be filled u/s 139(4C). Many people advise to file ITR 5. I personally feel that’s not correct.
