This query is : Resolved 

28 February 2013 A Director of the company has to make a declaration u/s 299 of the Companies Act, 1956 on the year ending 31st March in FORM NO. 24-AA, But if it is Sunday then whether we have to change the date like 1st April, or it is alright to show the same date as on 31st March, whether there is any provision regarding this or not in the Companies Act,1956.
(As on 31st March, 2013, it is Sunday)

28 February 2013 Hi

If you take it on 1st April, then they will come in the next financial year, so you take it on 31.03.2013. There is no issue that it is Sunday or it on Monday.

It is the director right to give on any day before the end of financial year.
