Change of Karta in HUF for income tax


This query is : Open 

Quick Summary
Following the passing of the original Karta, you can change the Karta of a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) for income tax purposes. The process typically involves submitting a letter in the prescribed format along with a PAN application for change or correction. It is also advisable to create a new HUF deed reflecting the current Karta and existing members, and to distribute copies to all relevant parties.

13 June 2022 Dear Sir,

My father was having an HUF running in his name for which he used to file regular income tax return.

Now he is no more, hence I want to operate his HUF.

I want to know what is the procedure for changing the name of Karta in income tax so that I can operate the HUF.

Please help me in this matter.

Regards,
Divyesh Jain

14 June 2022 Just write a letter in prescribed format for change in karta name and send it with change or correction of PAN application.

16 June 2022 Advisable to make a fresh HUF deed with the present Karta and existing members. Send a copy to all the concerned.
