Which tax deadlines not extended

 


The CBDT  vide circular no. 9 dated May 20, 2021, extended the number of Income tax due dates for the financial year 2021 to provide some relief to the taxpayer during the second wave of covid and lockdown in the country. However, we find that following CBDT gas not extended the due dates for the following compliances and this will continue the hardship to the taxpayer.

01. Payment of TDS for the month ended May 2021 -  The due  date is still June 7, 2021, and for the taxpayer find difficult to pay TDS in the present lockdown scenario

 

02. Payment of the first a quarter of advance tax is due on June 15, 2021, and for this also CBDT not extended the date which continues the hardship to the taxpayer.

 

03. The due date of TDS return has been extended by one month but not for TCS return and equalization levy return. For this, the due date is still May 31, 2021, & June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

04. All charitable trust who had obtained registration u/s 12AA and 80G are required to apply for re-registration by submitting form 10A before June 30, 2021. There is no extension of the date for these compliances.

 

05. There is no extension of payment of self-assessment tax over Rs. 1 Lakh. The due date for the same is still July 31, 2021.

 

06. Also, there is no extension for submission of form 15G and 15H which is due on June 30, 2020.  

 

07. Also in respect of GST return, there is no extension of the due date towards payment of tax and filing of returns. The CBIC only waive the late fees till May and also reduced the rate of interest for delayed payment from 18% to 9%.

 

Thus, the tax department has not provided complete relief to the taxpayer during this hard time and hence it is very important to aware of which due dates were not extended.
