The ITAT Cochin has ruled that a charitable trust’s belated return filing for AY 2014-15 is not a valid reason to deny an exemption under Section 11. The court clarified that the condition for timely filing became a legal requirement only from AY 2018-19.
Both return and Form 10B were filed within extended due date (31.10.2018). Thus, substantive compliance was achieved. Filing of audit report after the return but before expiry of due date could not be construed as fatal non-compliance.
