Trust/AOP Audit


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a client registered as a Trust but without an IT PAN, yet receiving one under the Trust's name. The core queries revolve around determining if the entity is a Trust or an Association of Persons (AOP) for IT purposes, which Income Tax Return (ITR) to file (ITR 5 or 7), and whether a CA audit is mandatory. The consensus suggests it's an AOP, requiring ITR 5, and an audit isn't mandatory for the specified financial year. Tax slab rates for AOPs are also clarified, with individual rates applicable if no members have taxable income, otherwise a 30% tax rate applies.
