Live Law  

The Central Board of Direct Taxes on Monday declined all representations seeking further extension of due dates for filing of Audit Reports and Income Tax Returns for the Assessment Year 2020-21. The Board has given the following reasons for rejecting these representations: The due dates for filing of return/tax audit have already been extended on 3 occasions The Board was of the opinion that the Government has not only considered representations of various stakeholders but also has been proactive in providing relaxation to the taxpayers by extending due dates regularly. Subsequently, the due dates for filing of returns were further extended to 31st January, 2021 for cases in which tax audit report is required to be filed and 31st December, 2020 for all other cases. Return filing statistics of the current year indicates that returns filed in this financial year already far exceeds the returns filed which were due on the last date of filing of returns Inter alia, the Board compared the number of filings made by assesses this AY till date, with the number of returns filed last year and observed that the number of returns filed this year has already exceeded the number of returns filed last year up to 31st August which was the last day of filing of the all the returns other than the company/tax audit returns, by about 6%.
