This discussion addresses whether late payments of Provident Fund (PF) for April and May 2020 will be disallowed for Income Tax purposes. While the due date for payment wasn't extended, a government notification (SO-1513) allowed for later deposit of EPF contributions for April, May, and June 2020 until January 2021. The core question is whether depositing PF late, even within this extended period, will still lead to disallowance under Income Tax rules.

There was notification from govt. to deposit Notification No is SO-1513 of April - May and June-2020 EPF for deposting till Jan-21 . In this case suppose we deposit late EPF say 50 days late, then will it attract disallowance in Income Tax.
