It was argued that the above decisions were accepted by CBDT and the due date was extended in the respective territories of the High Court’s jurisdiction. Hon’ble HC after considering the above two judgments held that held that it is very unfair that benefit regarding an all India statute is restricting its benefit to only two states and one Union territory.
WILL CBDT and its sycophants introspect and explain to their own consciences that why this foolishness to extend due date for filing of ITR/TAR after ending of statutory due date. What purpose it has served for them. Those who put the CBDT and MoF in this ignominious state of back track should be shunted out of their present regime.
After much hullabaloo the CBDT has issued the circular of extending due date to 31/10/15. What would have happened if the order was not issued in the first place? 1. Contempt of court petition can be filed for states who have got a writ to their favour. What is the penalty? Imprisonment or fine? Who will be imprisoned? Some scapegoat bureaucrat or say chairman of CBDT.
The issue of extension of last date for e-filing returns of income and audit reports u/s 44AB due by 30th September, 2015 has been the subject matter of litigation in various High Courts across the country.

From Last Few days I was updating the status of Writs filed in various High Courts in India for extension of Due date of Income tax Return and tax Audit Report, which were falling due on 30th September 2015. In all these appeal, some high courts has ruled in favour of Assessee, Some has ruled against the Assessee, Some are yet to decide and some left the issue at the wisdom of CBDT. So the final status of all high courts in which appeals been filed on the issue as per my knowledge is as follows:-
Empanelment of members for the assignment of Checkers for CA examinations to be held in November 2015- Checking of totaling of marks etc in the answer books of CA examinations, after they have been evaluated by the examiners, is being assigned/carried out by members of the Institute, who are empanelled for the purpose.

Every year we celebrate 2nd October as the birthday of our own Mahatma Gandhi, who is also called the Father of our Nation, as a mark of respect for his selfless contribution to our nation.
