Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies whether filing Form 29B is compulsory for private companies. Generally, if your company pays tax under the standard Income Tax Act provisions and not Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT), filing Form 29B is not compulsory. However, it's crucial to file it if the tax paid under normal provisions exceeds the tax payable under MAT, to provide proof. Consulting a tax professional is always recommended for specific advice.
